After breakfast we transferred to the Mount Kenya Safari Club. This resort was located in the forests facing Mount Kenya, Africa's second highest peak next to Kilmanjaro. We had a beautiful view of the huge rounded mountain with a rocky "temple-like" peak. We enjoyed huge room suites with fireplaces and bathtubs. What a wonderful treat for Christmas Day. We went to the animal orphanage they have on the grounds there. This is a place that takes abandoned or injured wild animals and houses them...

Depart for Mt. Kenya Safari Club. This resort, a "Leading Hotel of the World", is set like a jewel of history and romance. William Holden and his friends turned their lodge into the most exclusive private club in the world and amid the hunting trophies and elegant surroundings, one can feel the lost, glamorous world of Churchill, Hemingway, and Ruark and all of that bygone era's dashing adventurers. The Equator runs through the hotel and when the clouds open to reveal Mt. Kenya, it is one of ...

12 MAY: SAMBURU/MOUNT KENYA 0530 hrs: Breakfast at the lodge and after checkout we departed to the Mount Kenya Region via Nanyuki. Enroute we stopped for shopping at Solomon's Curio shop.

Checked-in and had lunch outside the swimming pool overlooking Mount Kenya. During the Barbeque lunch it sta...

DAY ELEVEN (Monday, September 14, 2009)
I hear the drums echoing tonight.
Today was moving day. Breakfast … and then hit the road. Martin drove the four of us, plus Pat and Ann Cashin of Marco Island, out of Samburu and along many long, ugly roads through Isiolo, Timau, and Nanyuki. Along the way we passed through an area with lots of green houses – they grow carnations to export to the world. We knew we were close when we could see Mount Kenya, which dominates the s...

I bless the rains down in Africa
It rained here today …the first time in more than two years. There was much celebration. It reminded me of the Toto song "Africa" … check out this acapella version:

... years as well. After we gave our speech we had to run back to the Mugo's cousins house because they had given us their key for the day and the wedding was running four hours behind schedule so we had to go let the cousins into their own house. Emmanuel, who lives in the city of Nairobi, brought Jackson, one of Matanya's Hope's first sponsored children who is now in college, to see us so that we could visit briefly. We then went back to the cousins' house, ate dinner, and went to sleep.

... there are many brilliant scientists, doctors, lawyers, artists, etc... in this country and the rest of the world and it is our job to help eachother out to reach our fullest potential, who knows if one day it may be our children needing the help. Monica would love to become a doctor one day and due to the opportunities provided by Matanya's Hope and sponsors, that dream has the potential of becoming a reality. It is imperative that people realize the power that they hold and ...

... Odinga, the presidential candidate from ODM (and the man who won the elections) have as the prime minister? This was the last and greatest obstacle preventing an acceptable power-sharing agreement. Sensing the proximity of the solution, ODM declared that if a solution was not agreed upon by this Thursday, February 28, they would hold a mass rally in Uhuru park in the center of Nairobi. This week has seen a sea change in the position of the ...

... of his mouth like a yokel, only to lose it when we had a go at jumping (at speed) the fences in the field in front of the house) and dinner at the local posh restaurant. This restaurant is called the Trout Tree ... as suggested by its name it is at a local trout farm and amazingly it is built as a big tree house. The food was fantastic. I then spent the afternoon relaxing, reading and teasing Martin (or Old Git as he now has been titled!)

... with the battery. Thuri (who is not known for his car mechanical skills) headed back to the house with an idea ... something that caused Martin to nearly have a heart attack as about 5 minutes later he spotted Thuri walking back to the car with a huge hacksaw in his hand! The reality was that Thuri had found a small sheet of spare metal, so Mocheme and he cut a little bit off wrapped it round the battery terminal and then used the plyers to whack the ...
