Slippin' & Slidin'

thunder lightening and rain all morning
rains subsided but left muddy roads in their wake

Driver said "we wouldn't see any animals, they don't come out in the rain"
went out for Safari anyways
saw water bucks, buffalo, kobs, birds and then the climax - lions eating breakfast

throughout the entire ride we were slipping and sliding all over the road
Bus fishtaled severely, slide to a stop still standing upright but lying perpindicular across the dirt turned mud road blocking all potential traffic

tried to fix it, didn't work, but did move forward several feet
pushed in the mud, we were victorious
slid out again a little while later but were able to self correct
made it back muddy but empowered,
final game drive, the best of all
