Lions!

Besides warthogs, my favourite animals were still probably the lions.  They were very relaxed around our van and obviously used to the attention.  I took a few great videos of them wandering about.  I put them on youtube and linked them here.  Take a look! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tO2ShU9wwgo
We saw lions everyday which I did not expect.  The drivers were always trying to find them for us though.  You could hear them talking on their radio.  You knew when you heard them say Simba, we were on our way to a lion siting.  The best veiwings of them were in Taita Hills and in Amboseli I believe.  We saw a family whole family including the parents and three 8 month old cubs on our early morning game drive as well which was amazing.  They are so similar in their mannerisms to house cats.  I felt like I could go up to them and ruffle their fur.  Here are some of the best pics.
