Safari
I couldn’t believe I was in Africa on a safari and that my dream came to fruition.
My guide points to the giraffes in the field; their long necks and legs were ominous to other smaller animals.
The elephants led their young and stayed nearby. It was astonishing seeing them up close, the males’ prominent ivory tusks digging the soil as their young squeaked.
The heat in Africa was unbearable, so I sipped my bottled water to stay hydrated in awe of my surroundings.
The tour ended and I was back at my hotel.
Tomorrow, my flight home to reality.
