For your (almost) Wordless Wednesday…
View in the morning from the lodge where we stayed (before our hike).
We walked about 15 minutes and the gorillas were sitting on the wall, waiting for us.
Most people hike at least 1-2 hours before seeing them.
Baby clinging to Mom as she goes to town on a eucalyptus tree.
Here comes the King…
This little guy sees him, too.
Ripping apart bamboo with his massive teeth.
Look at this pose! He so gets a cut of the gorilla permit fees.
Just to give you some idea of how good the zoom is on my iPhone.
We kept our distance, don't worry.
Time to head back--it's football season.
Everyone agrees.
Back into the mist.
View from our room after returning from the hike.
Can't think of a better way to end the day than intore (heroes) dancing with
Mount Muhabura (inactive volcano) in the background.
How adorable is the little kid on the right??
Celebrating victory in battle.
Now, it's the ladies' turn.
Impeccable balance with the grain basket.
The "band."
Finishing the day with gin and tonics on the porch of the lodge.
Life is good.
