Tour Guide in Kenya

Here are some pictures and highlights from my Uncle Jim's visit to Kenya.

First stop was the Giraffe Center where we fed and pet a giraffe.


Afterwards we went to the Bomas of Kenya Cultural Center to see traditional dancing, drumming, and acrobatics.


The centerpiece of the visit was a three-day safari to Masai Mara.






We were all excited that hot cocoa was served at every meal at our camp, including during afternoon tea following a long (arduous) day spotting wildlife.

Our safari concluded with a visit to a Masai village where we danced with the villagers.


After returning to Nairobi, we toured Kibera slum, and learned about the businesses and social systems the community has developed to support itself.
