grass floodplain and its expansive views eastward across the
alkaline lake, to the jagged blue volcanic peaks that rise from the
endless Maasai steppes large buffalo, wildebeest and zebra
congregate on these grassy plains, as do giraffes. Some so dark in
coloration that they appear to be from a distance. Dinner and

ecosystem is one of the oldest on earth. The essential features of
climate, vegetation and fauna have barely changed in the past
million years. Early man himself made an appearance in Olduvai Gorge
about two million years ago. Some patterns of life, death,
adaptation and migration are as old as the hills themselves. Meals

Day 4. Serengeti.

missed the previous game drive. Morning and after noon game drives.
It is the migration for which Serengeti is perhaps most famous. Over
a million wildebeest and about 200,000 zebras flow south from the
northern hills to the southern plains for the short rains every
October and November, and then swirl west and north after the long
rains in April, May and June. So strong is the ancient instinct to
move that no drought, gorge or crocodile infested river can hold
them back. Meals and overnight at Sopa lodge.
