More Tanzania pics

Mt Kilimanjaro.  We had views of it from the distance, and impressive mountain!  By the time we drove close it had become shrouded in clouds, but it was nice to get some glimpses of it..

panaroma from the viewpoint at the rim of the crater.

Herds of animals at the floor of the crater.

Villages, looking out towards the Serengeti from the rim of the crater


Euphorb forest on the crater rim

About to descent into the crater, we put up the truck roof for better viewing of the animals.

Maasai are allowed to graze cattle in the crater, but not allowed to live there.  They are grazing their cattle not far from where lions and hyenas hang out.



Standing up in the truck provides great views across the plains












Bunch of hippos in a pool as we head out for the day

Ascending up the one-way road out of the crater


On the last day, visiting Maasai communities in Maserani.  More bad erosion in the area.





Elisante suggested bringing some treats for the congregations, so the boys helped hand those out.







Thorn brush fences are constructed, both an outer ring around the whole compound, and here several enclosures as inner rings designed to keep cattle, goats and sheep safe at night.


At the second site, the church was located at an old lime factory.  Here we're looking at their office.
