Dream Trip 2009

Great Travel Moment

Seeing gorillas in their natural habitat is simply awe inspiring. It was especially fascinating to see the interaction between mothers and babies. We came across our group right after they had eaten lunch and were settling down for a nap. This baby was too interested in us to lie down initially and kept creeping forward while her mother would pull her back. Finally she cuddled up and settled in for a sleep but her mother kept a watchful eye on us.
