Safari Big Five, Prey and Predator
I don't like to go to the zoo since I was fifteen. It was not funny to see animals in jail, feces were lying around, preoccupied with bad smell and they looked so bored. If you want to explore wildlife, why don’t you take a trip to Africa?
It’s great to explore the big five in Africa Safari, Kenya. Big five refer to the lion, elephant, leopard, rhino, and buffalo. You should see the wild beasts in the morning because the animals spend the afternoon in hiding. At night, the lion is running fast to prey on the giraffes (or the weaker wild beast). On the other hands, the prey determines to run faster than the predator in order not to become the lion’s meal. Both the prey and predators live a difficult life to struggle for survival.

Hot Air Balloon
Riding the hot balloon to see the annual animal migration through the bird's eye view is amazing. Up to two million wild animals moving clockwise circle direction between Kenya and Tanzania which cover the distance of around 1800 miles to search for food and water. My friend, John, told me his experience in Luxor for riding the hot air balloon in some years before was a bit scary.
John was my friend and he rided the air balloon with other nine passengers.
John asked the balloon pilot: "Why did all those hot air balloons not fly in the same directions?"
Pilot: "It is normal. The balloon flight path is depending on the wind condition and pilot control."
John: "Had accident occurred before?"
Pilot: "Yes, sometimes accident did happen. I think this time is ok."
John: "How long have you been working for piloting the balloon?"
Pilot: "Oh, me? I learned the piloting skill for 5 times and then I can do the job."
John: "Do you need to get a license to do the job?"
Pilot: "Yes, I used three hours and then I was eligible to get the license."
The balloon was not moving stable and the pilot seemed unsure where the balloon could be landed.
The passengers grasped the basket tightly and prayer for safety landing.
The balloon was finally landing on the sugar cane field which was not on the planned location. They stayed on the ground for half hour waiting for the crew to collect the passengers and equipment.

Crater Lodge, experience the wild
It sounds attractive when I find the description on the web saying “nowhere else on earth can you wake up among all the trappings of an elegant baroque chateau - brocade sofas, gilt mirrors, beaded chandeliers and paneled walls - and be instantly transported into one of the most famous African landscapes with just one glance out the window of the lodge.” Would it be great to take a break to enjoy the time of exotic wildlife and allow ourselves to losing the track of daily routine for few days in Ngorongoro Crater Lodge?
