Weekend Visit to Masai Mara

Weekend was a welcome change after an extremely busy week. Three of us are going back home right after CSC assignment while others are extending their stay for additional 10 days after the CSC assignment. The group two has planned a long vacation to see Serengeti, Masai Mara, and other places in Kenya and Tanzania.  The three of us decided to make a quick weekend trip to the Masai Mara.
The Masai Mara National Reserve is a large game reserve in south-western Kenya which is the northern continuation of the Serengeti National Park in Tanzania.  The Masai Mara is named after the Masai people which is traditional inhabitants of the area.

Say Cheese!
The migration has not started yet.  Therefore, we were able to see only the resident animals but it still very nice.  Lots of beautiful scenery.  We did see a after hunt - a pair of lions had killed a buffalo.  Below are a few pictures from my collection.
