Tanzania- Going on Safari!! Lake Manyara - October 10, 2013

Our first stop in Tanzania was in Arusha for an good nights sleep before we started our safari adventure.  Then the next day bright and early we headed to Lake Manyara for an incredible day of animal adventure! It was surreal getting up close and personal with so many wild animals.

We were extremely lucky to see this tree climbing lion. This is one of a few places in the world where lions climb in trees.
