Well, we are home from our Safari. We had a great time being pampered and seeing the beauty of nature. Africa is a beautiful place. The sunrises and sunsets are amazing. Our guide for the game drives was Vincent. He was amazing. He knew the animals and the birds and knew all the right places for seeing the best animals.
We saw all the animals. Elephants, zebras, hippos, crocs, impalas, elands, giraffes, lions, cheetahs, gazelles, leopards, etc, etc, etc. It was amazing. We knew we were seeing great things because our guide had his own camera out and was taking photos. We got lots of family pictures. It is spring in Kenya so all the animals have had babies recently. We will be putting pictures up when we get back to Las Vegas. The internet connection in Nairobi is too slow so it won't upload the photos. I will keep trying.
The tents we stayed in on our safari were something else. Hardwood floors, tile shower, flushing toilet, running water. The wake up calls were the best. Our room steward stood outside the tent and softly called to us that it was time to wake up. Then, he would come in with hot chocolate and cookies. He turned our bed down every night and put hot water bottles in it to keep us warm. We had so much fun. The food was delicious. We ate Kenyan gourmet for nearly every meal. Different choices for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Four course meals every time. They usually have a buffet set up for breakfast and lunch, but there were only about 10 people staying at the camp so we were extra pampered. Francis was our server for every meal and he did a great job taking care of us.
We are heading out for more sight seeing today so we will post again later.
