The whole pride walked along for another twenty minutes or so.  We had to go the long way around to catch up to them because the bush was so thick.  But there was still very little shade from the small bushes that weren't fully leafed out yet.  They finally found some shade and all flopped down.

 

Big Dad tried to stay awake, but it didn't work.

 

The cub did better than he did.

 

The ranger said they would have to eat that night or they would be in trouble, but that was our last night there, so we don't know what happened.  I like to think they got some nice antelope that there are plenty of.

There will be just one more letter about these lions.
