Gorillas in Da Mist
Ra's Life
Yes, there is another movie made about Rwanda - apart from "Hotel Rwanda". About Diane Fossey and the mountain gorillas. I won't bore you with the superlatives of my experience trekking to see them .. yes I will. Amazing, Fantastic, UnFreakingBelievable...
I will write up some detailed blogs on it. Start with being ARMS LENGTH away from a 300 pound Silverback gorilla, continue with watching 2 males play wrestling and tumbling down a bank, rolling 3 feet from one's feet and round it off with watching the "main man" Silverback mate with a female which has just joined the group.
All this and more (details and photos to follow) happened on my trek to see "Group 13" in Volcanos National park on Saturday. On on!
