With thousands of wildebeest and zebra all over the the Mara plains it is common to find them grazing and relaxing by the road side.
Peter and his guests were on a full-day game-drive and were headed down towards the great Mara river but on their way there they drove past several huge herds of gnus which were relaxing by the road side. His guests found to be an amaizing experience to see so many gnus all in one place and to drive right past them.
