In the early afternoon, we headed on our second safari and stayed until twilight.
Depending on the time of day, youll also see different personalities from the lions.
When I went in the morning, the lions werent the apex predators Id anticipated.
They inched toward a grazing herd of wildebeests, their eyes locked on their next meal.
I wouldnt have experienced these different personalities if I hadnt seen both in action.
Dressed in signature bright red robes, the warriors greeted us at the entrance of their village.
Then, they sectioned us off into groups to tour the family huts and learn about their pastoral lifestyle.
Going on safari was life-changing for so many reasons.
I was surprised that the lions and giraffes seemed to barely take notice of our Jeep.
The safari also taught me a lesson in patience.
Its not a question of if, but when, Ill go back to Masai Mara on safari.
And who knows maybe this time Ill spend more than a few days exploring Kenyas most famous game reserve.
