Day 1. Northwich to Rivertrees Country Inn, Arusha

Long day of travelling to reach Tanzania, where will we spend the next month (thank you Greg for sorting the maps).


Days 1-2: Arusha. 
Days 3-6: Tarangire Park. 
Days 7-9: Ngorongoro Concession. 
Days 10-17: Serengeti Park.
 
Days 18-19: Lake Natron. 
Day 20: Arusha.
 
Days 21-22: Pangina and the Indian Ocean. 
Days 23-27: Iringa and Ruaha Park. 
Manchester airport excelled itself - over an hour for the baggage drop and then my camera bag got pulled over in security with a complete jobsworth insisting that the entire bag was emptied to put everything through individually!  So having arrived 2 hours early we made it through just in time for the last boarding call.  Luckily the rest of the journey was really smooth.  Top tip when entering Tanzania – make sure, unlike the America lady in front of us, that you have the address where you are staying instead of insisting that the friends you’re staying with don’t have one!!!  We arrived at Rivertrees Lodge in time for pizza and beer before an early night - 16 hours travelling door to door taking its toll.
