Safari!!!!! Hakuna Matata!!

Thought this warning was kind of funny.... Not like you would see me getting out of the jeep so I could get closer.

The accommodations were pretty awesome. Safari was a great way to end a very busy trip, but it was sad leaving Tenwek, and I started missing my family a lot more at this point. Laura and I had purchased a cell phone in Nairobi a week and a half earlier, that cell phone didn't work at the Masi Mora Safari.

Yes it was a tent but it was a "tent" a real one. Everything all the way to the food was just awesome.

We all paid extra to enjoy a Bush Dinner, the food again was great, and they made us a big bonfire, drinks and desert., and anything else we wanted. There was a port-a-poty out in the bush and all of this even came with its own armed guard. It was a pretty cool experience.

You can see we were definitely spoiled.

These giraffes were sparring. Here we are with the Nouri's Nathan by brother, Ann, Malic and me getting ready to go out on a safari.

This is the Masi village we visited. We were greeted with dancing, singing, and hand shakes. It was also a great way to catch the culture.

The animals we saw were pretty amazing, we saw the leopard on our very first safari. That was heart racing and jaw dropping fun. It is sort of hard to describe.

Here are the girls, just having fun.

Below are the Masi warriors singing and jumping as a part of cultural tradition.

At the very top of the picture you can see a croc, our guide said that the hippos created sort of a kitty pool idea to protect the two babies. In my opinion I don't think security could be any tighter.

At the Bush dinner there was a part in the program where the Masi danced and sang for us again. That was awesome. But by the end of it we were attending Laura's wedding. As you can see from the photo she is carrying the marriage stick.

It was pretty amazing to see all of these animals in their element.

Rain was constantly threatening while we were there but it only rained a little that very first day we went out on safari. We were lucky. The temp was actually quite enjoyable.

The Masi territory made up some 2,100 square miles of land.

This Cheetah was just trying to rest.

This leopard, was pretty incredible. Our guide put us right in front of it. It was hunting a rabbit.

After we all shot pictures with us touching the rhino the guide told us that not much bothers rhinos, and about the only thing that really bothers them is when you mess with their young.

Maybe someone could have told me this before I touched the baby.

All of the giraffe we saw were so beautiful.
