Bandhavgarh 2024

(英文版见下文)
我们的休学年已经结束，但我们的旅行热情依然不减。今年，黑森州提供三周的复活节假期，我们决定再次前往印度老虎栖息地（然后去马尔代夫浮潜）。基于我们10个月前的经验，我们再次从班德哈维尔国家公园出发。这次我们进行了6次观察之旅，其中2次完全没有看到老虎。但另外2次的观察非常出色，其余2次则比较普通。总体而言，我们在班德哈维尔国家公园看到了8只老虎（4只成年虎，2只亚成虎，2只幼虎），当然还有许多其他动物。
由于我们今年来得比上次稍早，所以天气不如上次那样炎热——大多数时候日最高气温略低于40°C，而早晨在开放式的野生动物园吉普车上还可以很舒适地使用一条毯子。

Our gap year is unfortunately over, but we are still keen on traveling. This year, Marions Easter holidays are 3 weeks long, and we decided to repeat the visit to the Indian tigers and to go snorkeling on the Maldives afterwards. Based on our expiriences from 10 months ago, we started in the Bandhavgarh National Park again - this time going on 6 safari trips into the forest. On two of these trips we did not see any tigers at all. While two of the other trips were rather average, on the remaining two trips we had very impressive sightings. Overall we saw 8 tigers in Bandhavgarh (4 adults, 2 subadults, 2 juveniles), and of course a lot of other animals as well.
As this time we were here earlier in the year, the temperature has not been as hot as last time where we usually had about 40° celsius. This time, a warm blanket in the open safari jeeps was very welcome in the mornings, whilest at noon the 40 was again in reach.
