Full of anticipation a sunny second day started in the Amboseli National Park.
Our safari guide Niclas came to me and said that today would be a good day and we would see many animals.
He should be right. Right at the beginning we met the favorite animal of my childhood. I still remember what a horrible day it was when I lost my favorite stuffed animal. (A hippopotamus called Nipie)
Niclas told us that the hippopotamus is statistically responsible for most people's deaths. When they feel threatened, they know only one direction - attack! With safety distance we let the hippopotamus cross the street.

Simba

The SafariGuides are connected to each other with walkie talkies and give each other a message, when they see a rare animal. Niclas said enthusiastically to us: „There are lion cups with their dad. Just around the corner!“, He drove a little faster, but still very thoughtful, so the animals who are living here won’t be scared.
I have seen lions already in Tsavo East Park, but it was again an absolute highlight.
It was fascinating to see how playful, cheeky and cute these little Simbas are. Mufasa basked in the sun and watched the little ones playing with each other. 'Simba' means' Kishwahili '' lion '' and '' Mufasa '' means' 'king' '. A wonderful moment.

Time for a match

Of course, we saw many other animals, but I try to repeat as few animals as possible. Just have a look at the first part.
On the way out of the park we drove through a small village where locals played volleyball in the middle of the National Park.

Goodbye Amboseli

The second and last day at AmboseliPark came to an end and we hit the road in the direction towards Aberdare National Park. In 1952 even the queen made holidays in a treehouse, which is now called Treetops Hotel.
So brace yourselves…
