This morning started with a nice warm shower before the hippo and croc tour. We saw tons of hippos, baby hippo, birds, crocs, snails, zebra, and waterbuck. We saw a hippo trying to mate. After lunch, we headed out for our horse ride. It was absolutely amazing. My horse, Assagyi, liked to be at the front of the pack which gave me an amazing view of the land. We came close to zebra, blue wildebeest, and impala. We saw a massive snakes skin as we rode through the grass. We also rode along the beach, not just walking but we trotted as well. My butt is already sore! We came back to Thanda tonight and met the 3 new research/community volunteers.
