The actual crossing location for the Great Migration is at the river where these hippos were just lounging. The wildebeest follow the rain flow in the region and when things get scarce they cross the river in order to find more food and the rainfall of course. Once thing that surprised me was the fact […]

Baby Elephant Drinking Milk: Nairobi, Kenya
To see all of the baby elephants that have been rescued at the elephant orphanage in Nairobi is something out of this world. Its one thing to see a baby elephant period, but to be able to get up close and personal with them and see how they interact with both you and each other […]
Maasai Flame in Kenya
One of the unique aspects of visiting the Maasai in Kenya is they perform many of their rituals while you are there. After seeing the way they typically dance and getting a taste of what life is like inside their homes they took us outside to see other aspects of their culture. After seeing both the […]
The Maasai in Kenya
I found the Maasai in Kenya to be an extremely interesting people. They have a slew of rituals and practices that would be completely foreign to any tourist (one of the reasons they are so popular). One of the things that I found fascinating was that some of the Maasai’s attend university in Nairobi. Instead […]
Maasai Ostrich in Nairobi, Kenya

Vervet Monkey In Nairobi Gives New Meaning To Blue Balls

It was truly hysterical because if you look closely through the bushes you will notice that this monkey has bright blue family jewels. All male vervet monkeys have nice blue crown […]
Split Living Dead Acacia Tree – Nairobi National Park
This acacia tree was something that completely fascinated me. Its not one of the best pictures that I have taken but I think this is really an artistic picture. I couldn’t believe how half of the tree was alive and the other half seemed completely dead. The tree isn’t split or cut anywhere but it […]
Giraffe Up Close & Personal – Nairobi, Kenya
The Giraffe Center in Nairobi Kenya is one seriously cool place. Not only can you get completely slobbered on by giraffes but you can also capture pictures like the one I took below. If I am not mistaken this is the “dude, stop playing with me and give me some food” face. I tried to […]
Local Transportation in Nairobi, Kenya-The Matatu
What you are seeing is the stylish interior of a local transportation bus van in Nairobi, Kenya. They call it a Matatu and you should watch your step when you exit because if it isn’t an official “unofficial” Matatu stop the van literally doesn’t stop, until it reaches it’s final destination of course. Notice also the […]
