Sights and Sounds: Safari

Here are some videos taken on our safari that I was unable to upload in Uganda.

The ride to Murchison National Park took us from urban to rural Uganda.  Apologies for the sound when recording from a moving car...




Stopping along the way to buy fruit roadside.  Each vendor wears a numbered blue vest so you can revisit your favorite ones on future visits.

Crossing the Nile at sunset for the game drive...


A ride along these unpaved roads is referred to as an "African massage"


The immense power of Murchison Falls....

Hippo in the Nile River

Warthogs join us for lunch at Red Chilli Hideaway in Murchison National Park...
A little music while we wait for the ferry to cross the Nile River...
From here to here...


Riding rooftop in the game drive in Murchison National ParkApologies for the sound when recording from a moving car...

An elephant dusting off in the morning....
Jackson's Hartebeests.....

Endless plains of antelope species...

Saudra, our guide, leading us through the rainforest in Bodongo....

Rainforest hike...alone...

This gives you an idea of how close to the rhinos we were....

Cattle from locals at the rhino sanctuary are critical..they eat the tall grasses down to the shorter height preferred by the rhinos
