Having experienced one of the most extreme adventure sports,
the gush of thrill was still in our bloods. This trip had been very exhilarating
so far, but what was to come next has amazed all who know and have seen our
pictures of the day.
Africa is renowned for its wildlife and variety of Safari
options, and Zambia is famous for one such extreme safari at ‘Mukuni Big 5’.
The rustic route to the safari enclosure, flanked with thick forests on either
side of rough patchy red-muddy road, with no traffic at all, counsels one for
the forthcoming ultimacy.
Having got the passes and instructed by the facilitator, we
marched our way bravely, with one sleek stick each, towards the King and Queen
of the jungle. Following 40min walk was a royal experience with the Lion King
strolling around and flirting with the Lioness, while they were trailed by us
with their tails in our hands. Being marked by the king (with an invisible ink
;P), we emerged out of the forest with the Lion and Lioness petted by us. The
respectful generosity of the Rulers of the Jungle has bestowed upon us the
feeling of having tailed the royalty in real sense.
But this was not enough, and we went a little beyond our
limits. Walking the King boosted our spirit to go ahead and play with the
fastest living creatures; so there we were enjoying the company of three very
agile Cheetahs in the middle of the wilds. I fail to recollect the names of the
two other than the mischievous Lily, who had specially picked me as her favorite
and constantly tried to hug me tight ;P; not to forget her mates warning glare
into Nisheeth’s eyes (pictures show how loved he felt by him).
That concluded our Livingstone trip and we headed back to
Lusaka, contended with the mind boggling everlasting beautiful memories,
captured in our hearts, minds and cameras.
