“When we were briefed before taking off for the Safari, the
distance scared me because I expected to get exhausted and tired. I also was
scared on hearing of the lions especially when we were told not to move beyond
some boundaries at the hostels. But I did not even feel tired throughout the
whole journey. We made stop overs to see some interesting places like we
stopped at the equator where we had photographs taken. We had fun all the way
up to the park. I enjoyed watching animals. I had never seen an elephant but
this time I was able to see very many of them moreover from a close distance. I
was surprised to see that the elephant eats thorny plants and can even run with
all that size.
The three days we were in the park, we were able to see
different animals. We saw buffaloes, warthogs, bush bucks, the kob, antelopes,
hippopotamuses, and the king of the jungle (lion). Mr. Denis asked the driver
to stop at one point and showed us a very beautiful bird called the black red
bishop. We saw other birds but this one interested me most because of its
colours and name.
On this Safari I really enjoyed the boat ride on
Kazinga channel to Lake Edward. I think this is a home for hippopotamuses
because we saw very many of them in the water. The was very nice and
funny.
But I did not like the environment where we slept because it
was all surrounded by bushes. In the night we could hear animals
making scaring noise and even hear some moving around the house. During the day
warthogs would move all over the compound. I suggest that Wild Life Authority
fences the hostels so that the animals do not get to the compound. This also
will make the people feel safe.
I really got to see the beauty of my country. Thank you very
much.”
We know you too can have these blissful memories after a tour with us whenever you choose to have it.
