The birth of our

We circle outside the slopes of Ngorongoro, which is known as the Ark of Noah, by the diversity of animals that live within the crater. We spent hundreds of Maasai houses to enter into a vast green meadow, were going along the bed of a river full of acacia trees on its banks. Explored an unknown area for me, where he soon began to meet giraffes and later appeared the first groups of hundreds of wildebeest, that covered the undulations of the stunning landscape. Fuimos crossing nues during but 30 kilometers, to find the main body of the great migration near Lake Ndutu. Here we see herds of hundreds of wildebeest to start watching thousands of them. My view impresiobaba my mind and just knowing that there are more than 1 and a half million wildebeest, understood what he saw. As we were in a conservation area, We could leave the road and get into the middle of the migration. Sometimes we got 5 kilometers in between these animals and we kept seeing wildebeest, inclusive girando 360 degrees, we saw wildebeest in all directions to the horizon. Later we saw a circular area without wildebeest, We decided to explore it and find in it the more speedy mammal, Cheetah, eating a gazelle thompson. Not only wildebeest migrate in search of greener pastures, with them also migrate gazelles tompson, Zebras and fewer, the eland, larger antelope that can weigh 900 kilos. Everything seemed quiet until it started getting gray sky. This area, of Tanzania, when it rains it becomes “black cotton” black cotton, that is a difficult move sticky mud. I ran with the advantage of having the best four×4 there, I have also always prepared my Landrover Defender for such circumstances. The cracked earth became a black liquid amusingly patinoso where the vehicle seemed to enjoy going sideways. On two occasions the truck completely crossed over the road, and again walked slowly out of the way to give a twist 180 degrees. It seemed incredible, but every time 4×4 coleaba 90 degrees and was a giraffe appeared Side. Other sections of the road became river city and we got to do more than 1 kilometer water flush car floor. We also had to cross, in an isolated area, a little river, but very muddy, if we scored we came to be there, we would stay for long, and that no one would take that route in such conditions. Never imagine to go see the birth of wildebeest would have to use mi 4×4 nor so intensely that conoceria deeply Ngorongoro Conservation Area. But without a doubt and surprise for me, This has been one of my best trips in Africa.
