No, it wasn't a dream....we really did go on a safari to Africa. To say the least it
was amazing and unforgettable...there isn't anyplace else on Earth like Kenya. We saw
so many things...The Great Rift Valley, Karen Blixen's farm (she wrote the book
Out of Africa, one of my very favorite books), the Masai Mara game reserve,
Sweetwater game reserve, got to see Mt. Kenya, Amboseli game reserve, Lake
Nakuru bird sanctuary and home of the rare White Rhinoceros. We crossed the
Equator several times, and I finally got to see what the Southern Cross looks
like in the Southern Hemisphere sky. We went to Nairobi and Mombasa and
saw the azure blue and very warm Indian Ocean, saw beautiful birds and got to see the Big Five
animals..visited the chimpanzee sanctuary that Jane Goodall started, we marveled
at the enormous African sky, and got to stay beneath the majestic Mt. Kilamanjaro.
