Visiting the Serengeti was the last part of our adventure. By the time we left the Ngorongoro Crater, Bill and I were worn down and sick. On day two in the Serengeti, the lodge called for a doctor to see us. This took about 36 hours.
To our surprise, the Serengeti is a ragweed minefield! Bill is extremely allergic to ragweed. I was diagnosed with bronchitis/walking pneumonia. The doctor offered us some herbal medicine and when we asked his visit/medicine fee... he said no charge. We pressed a bit and he finally let us pay him.
Bill quickly got better but we had to leave a day early. Avoiding a hot and bumpy day journey we asked Gregory to coordinate a flight to the Arusha Lodge. I was treated for pneumonia shortly after returning home.
Now to get to our amazing experience!
