Phunuru reports that the Kili team had a great day today out on the Serengeti. After flying from Arusha to Seronera they spent the afternoon on a game drive and were able to spot 4/5 of the Big 5! That included the Cape Buffalo, Elephant, Leopard, and Lion. The only one not in attendance was the Rhino, but hopefully they will see them in Ngorongoro Crater in a couple days, where the Rhinos are protected by the Park Rangers from poachers.  Now, the team is “glampingâ€Â the night away at a luxury safari camp with comfortable beds under canvas, a terrific cook staff, all the amenities, and many animals in the vicinity. During the night the staff will post a camp guard to shoo any critters away from camp!
