A long weekend, so we decided to get started with this whole Kenya thing nice and early.
jimonthemove:
We ere invited by Ryan and Kendi to Samburu, which I'd never heard of.
jimonthemove:
And there, we saw animals. This is an impala.
jimonthemove:
And this, of course, is a giraffe.
jimonthemove:
This was Nia's very first safari.
jimonthemove:
One of the reasons we moved to Africa.
jimonthemove:
And she had a fabulous time.
jimonthemove:
Oryx and grant's gazelle
jimonthemove:
And a first for me and Lorena: a cheetah.
jimonthemove:
Utterly gorgeous.
jimonthemove:
Pussy cat.
jimonthemove:
OK then, two cheetahs.
jimonthemove:
Majestic.
jimonthemove:
Off they go.
jimonthemove:
Impala again.
jimonthemove:
This fella was huge.
jimonthemove:
And older than me, I'm told.
jimonthemove:
Had an old tracking collar on which looked most uncomfortable.
jimonthemove:
Again: majestic.
jimonthemove:
Next day, and we're up bright and early for more adventures :)
jimonthemove:
Big croc.
jimonthemove:
Less big croc.
jimonthemove:
Baboon, and baby baboon.
jimonthemove:
We drove down to the other side of the river for today's safari.
jimonthemove:
These are grevy's zebras, which I'm told are only found in Samburu.
jimonthemove:
Zazu!
jimonthemove:
As do Lorena and Nia.
jimonthemove:
What do we see?
jimonthemove:
We see a very big elephant coming straight for the car!
jimonthemove:
And then wandering past.
