The drive to Lake Manyara took us right through the centre of Arusha and across some of the amazing African landscape. We passed many small villages built by the Maasai along the way. Fascinating!!
The park consists of 330 km2 (130 sq mi) of arid land, forest and a soda-lake which covers as much as 200 km2 (77 sq mi) of land during the wet season but is nearly non existent during the dry season.
Unfortunately the big cats were not up for visitors and went in to hiding but we did get to see some lovely creatures....and monkeys, loads of monkeys!
