It has been an amazing ten days with too many fascinating moments to describe in a few words. We have one more early morning game viewing drive in the morning and then we are off to Nairobi for the next several days. Today was another wonderful day where we saw white rhinos, which isn’t white but is larger than the black rhinos. We also stopped at a waterfall before going on to see more giraffes, water buffaloes, and and flamingos. To celebrate the day, we enjoyed the drink of Kenya, the Dawson. We are looking forward to seeing what the city of Nairobi has to offer.

Back in Kenya and Enjoying the Maasai Mara
We have had an exhausting couple of days, but we finally have a few minutes to share a couple of our adventures. Yesterday, after a long drive from the Serengeti in Tanzania, we crossed the border back into Kenya (stories to come later) to go to the Maasai Mara. We had a wonderful evening seeing cheetahs, leopards, and many other animals. We awoke very early this morning to enjoy a wonderful balloon ride followed by a champagne breakfast. From there we started our game drive where we had the most amazing experience. A cheetah jumped on the hood of our Land Cruiser, not once, but twice. We will share photos of that unbelievable and unforgettable encounter once we can get to all of our photographs. Still a few more days on safari before we head to Nairobi.
We are in the Middle of a Few Days in the Serengeti
We are in the middle of the second day in the Serengeti. It is once again a completely different experience and magnificent in every way. We chose not to bring a computer in order to save on space, so we will have to wait until we get home to go through the 5,000 photographs that we have taken. With another five and a half days on safari and several days in Nairobi, the numbers will be staggering. Until then we can transfer from the camera, we are limited to pictures from our phones, but we still have thousands to choose from. We have already seen the “Big Five”, lion, rhino, water buffalo, elephant, and we saw the leopard yesterday. WIFI continues to be spotty, so we will post again at the next chance that we get.
