In the Ngorogoro Crater we saw our first wildebeests.
There were a lot of them even though it was the end of the migration so they are all spread out.
They formed big black lines around the edges of the crater.
They travelled in single file a surprising amount of the time.
They look super funny when they are scratching.
Which they spent a lot of time doing.
The drive into Ngorogoro crater was not what we expected.
It was much larger and rainy in the morning.
There were breaks in the clouds revealing a dry plain.
We made our way down the side slowly.
Apparently elephants are good climbers.
They had a good view of the crater below.
The clouds come in every morning we were told which makes for a dramatic entrance.
There were so many animals. And our first wildebeests as you may see in the background.
Many many hippos.
And finally hyena. They just wander through the herds while the other animals sometimes stare at them.
Those are all wildebeest.
The clouds hang around the outer rim for quite some time. The only water is in a lake and a few streams running through the crater.
