MOLE NATIONAL PARK















We finally reached Mole and went for an early morning walking safari. We saw tons of warthogs, monkeys,’ bambons’ (as our guide calls them), and antelop or kob. The forest smelled incredible, like mint in your face, it was hard to remember we were in Africa because it was so lush and green. The hotel overlooks the watering hole so I spend the afternoon on elephant watch while chitchatting with people and reading. We didn´t see an elephant on our walk or at the hole, but WAWA. West Africa Wins Again. We were staying up talking to an Australian couple and the guard came up and just whispered elephant. Very dramatic and very close. There was an elephant just hanging out in front of the hotel, eating plants. Ellie in all her natural glory?
