Safari Park Nairobi

... Africa journey. Three continents down, two to go! I leave you with a few videos from our journeys (unfortunately this site won't recognize any taken on our actual high quality video camera, so these are all very low quality videos from the our little digital camera). Although I narrate most of these Gabe thankfully corrects the details. He does all the video for us on this trip so it's pretty bad when I grab the camera and attempt it.<br><br ...

... my big camera to my PC since I have different memory cards than my other camera(of course). So I put that on my list of things to get for the day. I also heard that there was a memorial for the US Embassy bombing of 1998 in the city. So I set out late morning after receiving some instructions and was doing some thinking on the walk. I was thinking how I will really enjoy this trip and really take a lot out back home with me. Seeing a place in a movie ...

Our flight with over 400 passengers, a lot of whom who are working with education facilities, churches or church groups, arrived at the same time as a flight from London's Heathrow airport and another from Dubai.

The wildlife, beautiful landscape and the fact ...

... overland trip on a truck from Nairobi to Capetown, South Africa and we have booked a 6 day safari leaving Saturday so all good. This done we have a few days here in Nairobi and to be honest we are not the least interested in seeing any more than we have already. So dear readers I will bypass the next 2 days as all we did was rest , shop for supplies to replenish our packs and prepare our finances by internet and check emails etc and eat which is a hit and miss affair here ...

... mothers and babies when we arrived Tuesday morning, and I have to say their system functions much more smoothly than Makina&#8217;s! Each mother is given a card on which they monitor their baby&#8217;s health progress &#8211; it has the dates of all the vaccinations they need to come in for on one side, with a graph on the back where the baby&#8217;s monthly weights are charted. This clinic was equipped with a much bigger freezer than Makina, so we were able to vaccinate for TB ...
