Etosha, Namibia

Happily, the entire drive from Swakopmund to Etosha was paved roads!

Etosha was fantastic!  We did a guided game drive in the morning and then relaxed by the pool during the heat of day.  Once it cooled down, we went back to see a few more animals before heading home for dinner under the stars.



Ready for our safari!!

Cheetah!

Ostriches

Here are several pictures of a group of lions (at least 8 but probably more) that we happened upon at the end of the day.  We sat there (in our car with the windows partially down) and watched them wake up from their afternoon nap.  It was an amazing experience that I'm sure I'll never forget.

They start to wake up

He awakes!





 After a lovely trip around Namibia, it was time to leave and head home.  These cute little baboons came out to say goodbye to us on the way back to Windhoek.
