Ya, the NG I read made them look a little mangy. Ya, the males, seem to be
an adaptation to the heat.. Just found a great price to Dar from Seattle,
$1012 US (SEA-AMS AMS-DAR). It gets in at o-dark 30, looks like I'll need a
reservation for the first night. I tossed and turned over arriving/departing
in DAR, KIA or NBO. It does put me close to Zanzibar. I'm thinking that's a
good place to start and ease into my first time in Africa....got to check
out Dar also but I'm not sure why.

As for Tsavo East, maneless lions and the springs.

Mzima Springs are in Tsavo West. Nice place, but perhaps by
themselves not enticing enough for a long journey by car, I
would think. I sometimes go there when I'm in the area.

Don't know anything about maneless lions, if you mean male
lions. :-) They would be more like a curiosity. Not sure if I
would even want to see them. I prefer lions with manes. :-)
