gorillas in the mud, rather than the midst

it was a long 8h + drive to arrive to the cute guest house we were staying
it was clean, nice and owned by a women's organisation set up after the rwandan genocide
at 6am we were up and eating breakfast
at 7am we were in the national park entrance
after a rather hard drive up the parking and 3 hours of walking in the jungle, amidst wild nettles (idea for torture), mud up til you calfs and bamboo trees 6 metres tall, we saw them
they were less than a metre away from us

the silver back and female arriving
