After an afternoon of driving around Ruaha national park, we sat in a little open hut to relax and wait until dinner time. As we chatted, we noted how the campsite was just in the middle of the park and that animals could come wandering through at any time. This scared Juma a bit, and he asked if there actually were any animals nearby right then. Someone joked, "Yes, there is a whole herd of elephants crossing the river right now!"
It was just a joke, but we turned around and saw that there really were elephants crossing the river! And quite close to us and our sleeping huts. It was both scary and beautiful.
