This trip has been a long time coming, having been postponed twice because of the pandemic. But we’ve finally made it to Tanzania in celebration of several milestone birthdays. We’re a party of 9, being joined by Nick’s sister Kate with her family, and organized by Nick’s mom.

After more than 24 hours of travel, we touched down at Kilimanjaro International Airport and made our way to Arusha for some much needed rest on horizontal beds. The next morning we boarded two Land Cruisers for the trip to Tarangire National Park. We spent the day scouting for animals with much success – we’ll let the pictures below do the talking.
