It's been a long and bumpy ride. Three hours of death.
Whoa. Look at the family of giraffes. To the right. Whoa. This is amazing. It's a cheetah.
Whoa. Fanciest sand I've ever seen. What?
And now we're going on this party. Real one. Oh, the clouds are so cool.
There's another cheetah. Our camp is literally right there.
And there's a cheetah.
He looks lost.
So cool. Where's your family? No, come back.
Come back.
There are so many animals out there.
Wake up. Wake up.
That one's pregnant. Look how fat it is.
We are surrounded by zebras.
It's hard to tell, but there's a huge line of wildebeest. Migrating.
Herd. Not line.
We think we see an elephant. The first animal of the big five. Second we saw lines. Oh, the second animal.
It's so goofy. Be.

So awesome. Oh, my gosh. It's so close.
This is like the coolest thing that's ever happened.
Is that a baby? Is that a baby lying noise? I think so. How are they saying.
That's a little bitty one? Oh, my goodness. Oh, please pick it up. No way. It's. She's picking it up.
Oh, my gosh.
Go hide. She's telling him to go hide. How old did you say it was? How old? About a week. A week.
