Day two at Lake Nakuru (day one is below, keep scrolling down!) - and we got up in the dark, to catch the animals' morning rituals. We slowed down a little too close to a baby buffalo at one point, and mum chased us away ...
We had been driving for maybe three hours, and were keeping quiet as we crept through some acacia forest when Heather spotted the leopard above, not six feet from us. Trying to get a better photo, we made soft noises to get it to turn its head towards us, but it just got up, stretched, and strolled disdainfully across the road in front of the car, and off into the bush.
At about eleven we took a turn up a hill to a viewpoint - later, on the way to pick up our bags from the Youth Hostel, a baboon family gave us a last display.
