We were up and out of the hotel at 6:30 for a bouncy drive to the Ngorongora Crater, whih is a 12 mile wide caldera full of African wildlife about 100 miles morth west of Arusha.
Was well worth the early start!! We had a full complement of passengers including Julie and myself and the external examiners.
Maasai village on the rim of Ngorongoro Crater, its been "recreated" for tourists
Our first view of the area was on the rim of the crater and it was spectacular. I think the photos speak for themselves!!
It is very green as this time of year is the end of the rainy season. Also managed to take a group shot of everyone.
Tanzania Tour 2014, (T-shirts are avaiable)
All calderas have a lake, this one is not so deep as Crater Lake in Oregon USA
Our rock solid, bouncy 4x4. No Evogues here, too wimpy!!
