Ngorongoro Crater, Tanzania

We arrived here yesterday, by the time we had checked in and had lunch we had time for a quick 2 hour Game drive. The drive from our lodge down to the crater floor is about 40 minutes, you decend 6000 meters! Unlike most of our other stops the crater is just over run with vehicles. Any time some one spotted something interesting or there was some action...vehicles would congragate like flies. Game viewing here is poor compared to the other camps we were at...but the landscape is breathtaking. You look back up to the top of the crater and there are clouds cascading over the top of the crater rim. The accomadations here are great, opulent as ever. We leave tomorrow to come back home...African adventure complete ( almost ).
