Our real adventure started out with a moderately long drive to Lake Manyara National Park with a brief stop off in Mtu Wa Mbu Village to experience a little local culture.
On our way to the village we saw our first wild animals in the form of a number of giraffes. We took about thirty photos, even though they were far away, because we weren’t sure we would see anymore.
At Mtu Wa Mbu Village we had a cultural walk that included seeing the carvings from a variety of tribes (as numerous tribes have come together in this village), seeing the inside of the mud homes, walking through a banana orchard, seeing a local church, sipping on some fresh banana beer, and then eating a local lunch.

The local lunch was superblocal food – in fact some of the best food of the trip. As a lotof the other food at the lodges was fairly genericbuffet style food. Which was not too bad most of the time but nothing like this.
