A few mornings ago we decided to sleep late, which is hard to do with the regular jungle noises combined with early morning game drive preparations...
Most mornings we hear vervet monkeys in the tree above us, sometimes peeing and pooping on our tent around 4 am! Yet we still love living among the vervet monkeys because they are so fun to watch. They love to play chase in the huge trees, and you can hear them jump from limb to limb. Funny.
The sound we heard next was much louder, but also involved trees. We slowly leaned up from our sleeping pads and yup, sure enough, there were elephants behind our tent!
They moved on out of sight, and we got up to make our coffee and breakfast. Seems they had circled the camp and came out over by the camper's kitchen! Beautiful sight, enjoyed watching them, especially with the small elephant beside the big one with the nice big ivory tusks!
