Going on a giraffe hunt

After saying our final goodbyes, we headed off for some well earned rest and relaxation. Having adopted a giraffe as our mascot, we were particularly keen to track a real one down...

Our first stop was Lake Nakuru national park where we saw buffalo, zebras, black faced monkeys, impala, owls, waterbuck, rhinos, baboons and, at the end of the day, a herd of giraffe appeared!

The next stop was the Masai Mara.  We'd timed our trip with the wildebeest migration and were lucky enough to see some of them cross the Mara river. 

Then Twiga, our mascot, was reunited with a few friends... 

... and we got up close and personal at a giraffe sanctuary.
