Katavai National Park

After Sunday Mass we took three days to ourselves to enjoy some of the natural beauty and wildlife in Tanzania.  We stayed at an amazing place called  Katavai Wildlife Camp where we were hosted by a great team including, Tim, our camp host.   The pictures and videos really do not do Katavai justice.  If you do nothing else please come visit this place; it is amazing, absolutely untouched.
