February 18 - Safari and hot springs







In the morning we awake baboons, which are fitted together with our garbage. Threw big chunks of sugar cane yesterday, that enticed strolling around here everywhere baboons. We were about to trash scattered around the car, and again and again baboony snap on Montka, looking at the middle, what a treasure we have there. Well, in these conditions is no longer possible to continue to sleep. Paraskewia so the reception to go on a safari. It is also changed. I once was an old dilapidated truck for 100N (1E = 200N) per person, minimum of 1500N but if there were no takers. Now he has chartered for only Toyota landcruisery 7000N. Fortunately we have a 4x4, so we only need a guide. In this case, 300N per person, so quite reasonably. We go on safari. We see, of course, baboons and monkeys, red (red monkey, do not know if they are so called in Polish), the entire mass guźców (in the camp taplają the leaking water from fire hydrants), bush buck antelope and roan antelope. We see a group of elephants, but unfortunately it has come into the forest, So we see very little. After hipopotamach also gone. After two hours back. We go for breakfast. We order an omelet with french fries (it's better than that of white bread toasted sweet pseudo, not utostowany, because there is no electricity). During our breakfast as you do, we pay for a room for tonight. Indeed, the changes are great. Rooms for $ 12 thousand. N are much smaller and uglier than those for $ 14 thousand. We choose to pay more. Treat yourself to some luxury for only 70E! After breakfast we go to spring. The water is 31 degrees and fantastic turquoise color. Ala had seen many pictures of Yankari, but still doing it big impression, especially since it is not no swimming pool, a natural spring, which turns into a river, with sandy-stony bottom. We forgot to add that We gathered garbage demolished by the baboons, and we wanted to throw them away, unfortunately, as the baboons saw that Al comes out of the car with a commercial of her obskoczyły and looked so threatening that she had to throw away the bag, which they immediately rushed. In the water it all the time looking at the huge group of baboons walking past. Some are quite aggressive. One of the females in heat have, unless takes but rival and begins to behave aggressively and closer to us. We need to throw stones at her. Moments later, a huge male (such baboons may be a meter as they stand on two legs) goes in the direction of our clothes. Al is on the shore and watches. I water it with stones. Shedding beside him, and he's just as if nothing ever goes on in our direction and takes a plastic bag. Here, boys are called baboons area (such as youth gangs in Lagos.) Indeed, something in it. We get out of the water, you need to prepare for an afternoon safari.
this time going with us less eloquent guide but all in all well - this morning was wordcap sometimes, silence is so common good. Coming very bumpy, NOT asphalt road, the guide saw an elephant behind the bushes. We go further, because there is a bend of the river without any trees and we get to the point where we can see perfectly the whole group of elephants - a total of about 40 View amazing. For a long time watching the elephants, who nobly passed along the river, and then we go. We see a few more lovely birds (hard to do, unfortunately, photo), and antelope. Pleased to return to the resort. Very successful safari.
spend a busy evening, writing outstanding reports from all days, you may not say that peter:) Tomorrow is waiting for us, Kano. We have yet to change the house, because our climate does not work (well, magical Nigerian electrician bind - probably burned in the compressor). Furniture are fantastic and so tastefully chosen as to be hard to believe that he could do a black man. Despite all our sympathy to them must be made clear that they do not have an ounce of taste or the idea of \u200b\u200bfinishing the construction work. Our cottage, despite the fact that just over half a year already dirty, and the tiles and the shower are so finished, though a small child entertained with plasticine and zapychało hole. Water from the shower flies everywhere, but not from the bowl. It could be a long time to exchange the wonders of Nigerian art. After a short conversation at the reception, where I share my observations and insights, of course, it turns out that the houses are furnishing by the German company. You do not even need to ask who was doing finishing work. It shows at a glance ......
And, another important issue. Our journey comes to an end. Al bought a return ticket to Polish on February 24 and 25 days ago will be in the country. Our Common trip ends. I'll stay for a while in Nigeria to sell Montka. If you will find something interesting has happened, then throw on the blog.
