Whenever someone thinks of Africa they usually think of
safaris, Lion King, or something along that line. However, lucky for Ghana, although it is in
West Africa, Mole National Park does have animals! I dreamed to go see the elephants despite the
far far travel. So after a lot of
convincing, we took the trip! I was
praying we would actually see elephants and it would not end up like our
excursion to see (or should I say not see) turtles on Cape Three Point. After a FAR journey to the north, a total of
about 40 hours of travel in 72 hours, we saw elephants! I’m pretty sure I was even smiling in my
sleep I was so happy to see them. Not
only did we see elephants we saw crocodiles, antelope, monkeys, Timon and Pumbas,
and other wildlife. Looking at the
pictures they seem fake, but its true we were that close to wild elephants! The guide wouldn’t let me actually touch them,
but I suppose for being with wild elephants that is probably a good idea. It was so fun to see the rest of Ghana also
because the north is a completely different place. So now not only is my blog just called “My
Life is a Safari”…I have been on a safari!
