 What a day it was - it was a full day outing in the vast wilderness of The Mara.  Saw the migration of  wild beasts in 1000s.  We were waiting for the next lot to cross the Mara River but the beasts just settled down on the other bank   in the Maara River saw a 20 foot long crocodiles as well few hippos too. We saw lion just a table length away, zebras crossing our vehicles, antelopes taking a flight seeing our vehicles coming close, Ostriches running at great speeds crossing our vehicles, a huge old old female elephant eating grass at our arms length, a cheetah with 5 cubs trying to catch an hare unsuccessfully, antelopes, wild hogs, gazelles, wild Buffalo's,  a leopard trying to gain high ground walking in front of our vehicles, hyena taking a carcass and running away, various birds including eagles,  guinea fowls etc. What an eventful day it was.   While returning back  even when we sighting zebra we became so used to it that it felt like we were seeing cows grazing in our back
