  • An elephant and calf emerge from the bush and surprised us. A few moments after this photo was taken the mother charged us when the calf got to close to us! Definitely one of the scariest and most awe inspiring moments of the safari and a reminder to treat nature with the respect it deserves. #lifeatexpedia #elephant #safari #tanzania #africa

  • We were completely mesmerized by this sea of pelicans in Lake Manyara National Park. There were tens of thousands of them clustered together at the edge of the lake. We just sat and watched them for well over an hour. If only a photo could replicate the sounds these impressive birds were making!
