Jambo Kenya 2009
In September of this year, I was fortunate enough to travel to Kenya for 15 days. What I found were perhaps the most charming, inviting and warm people that I have ever met. They were intelligent and very proud of their country… and of course, Barack. Recently Kenya has had a drought, which is dramatically affecting not just the animals of the nation, but the millions of human beings that live in this economically impoverished land. The waters of the Mara River in the Masai Mara region are very shallow. If they dry up, and they well might, it is estimated that 400,000 animals will die within a week. We went to Lake Nakuru for several days where we found the priceless flock of flamingos among other beautiful animals and of course, the warmth and charm of the people in that area. We then went to the Masai Mara region and were truly overwhelmed with the biblical beauty. I have enclosed some of these images on this blog to give you a partial feel of the region. However, my photographs could not do justice to a region that must be seen.
