My African Experience

My heart will always beat in rhythm with the African drum. It was 7am when we awoke, looking out of our tent to what I could only describe as a painting, it was an African sunrise. A day ahead of us full of adventure, it was the first overland safari I was going to have experience, eager to go I was thinking of what we were going to see. I had watched endless documentaries from a young age on Africa; from the largest land mammal to the smallest insect it all fascinated me. We put on our insect repellent, layered on the sun cream, packed our cameras and boarded the vehicle.
