Hipopos In The Geti

TANZANIA | Sunday, 27 Apr 2014 | Views [403]

Serengeti and Ngorongoro This place really does live up to its name. It is just a vast plain with nothing around but animals. And the crater, it is enormous. I wasn’t expecting something quite as extraordinary, in fact I wasn’t too sure ... Read more >
