Dream Trip 2009

Great Travel Moment

This was the highlight of our safari! Eye to eye with a wild cheetah. We came upon Eleanor and her five year old cubs. Our guide told us to sit still, be quiet and watch what would happen. One of the male cubs circled our jeep, then jumped on the jeep. He looked at us, then walked around the rim of the open jeep top. Since this sighting in early Feb, we have learned that the cubs have left Eleanor, and that Eleanor will soon have new cubs to raise.
