My fourth Safari in Southern Africa and what do you know, I finally get to see lions in their natural environment. But, I prayed that our paths would not cross on my first ever walking safari. The walking safari included guides identifying unique birds, plant life and tracking animals; and yes, tracking them by the dung and toilet holes. And no, I did not wear this red vest on foot. LOL.
