The safari to the Masai Mara was incredible.  We were able to see the animals up close, and there was no problem finding them all.  These are only a very small selection.  Our accommodation was in tented camps, which were very comfortable, and in some cases, elegant. Nigel was very excited about the animals, and our guide was impressed with what Nigel had learned previously about them.  

Nigel is doing two school projects while on this trip, and we spent some time gathering information from the guide and from the Masai people, about issues of poverty in Kenya, as well as human-animal conflict which is resulting in decreased populations of many of the species in Kenya.

Today, we'll be adding pictures of our trip to Mombasa and of the last three safaris, so stay tuned!
