Jambo Kenya! Well not just yet. Nairobi, Kenya is our first destination on our tour of East Africa and where we fly in and out of the continent. Whilst in Kenya we will be visiting places like the Masai Mara, East Africa Mission Orphanage, Lake Naivasha and Lake Nakuru.

Kenya is the only country to have a national park within its capital city. Lying just 7km from the centre of Nairobi, Nairobi National park houses all the famous African wildlife. Nairobi National Park is not to be confused with a place like the Werribee open rage zoo, these animals are wild which makes images such as this one so exciting.

The Mighty Maasai! Possibly one of the most well known African tribes, the Maasai are a semi-nomadic group that live in Kenya and Northern Tanzania.

The Maasai herd goats, sheep and cattle and traditionally live on the produce from these animals. However, the Maasai are under constant pressure from governments to adopt a more modern lifestyle which is putting their traditional way of life under threat.

Anyway we are off to Cairns and the Whitsunday's for a bit of a pre holiday party.

So kwa heri for now.
