Entering Africa

We took a late flight from Doha to Nairobi. There we met our personal guide and travel guru for the next few days, Joseph. First night was at the Tamarind.

Joseph picked us up and took us on a tour of the city. From government buildings, historic landmarks, outdoor markets, the largest “slum” in the world, we were all blown away by the blending of old and new and wealth and poverty in this city. Then it was on to our home.

Hemingways!

Our room. Majestic!
View from our balcony. No animals yet.

After a nice lunch we all needed an afternoon of napping and relaxing. Then it was on to dinner. What better way then a good quick stroll through the garden.

The gang moving to din din.

Along the way it was amazing. The two local ladies we met at the mosque in Doha showed up again!

They love to pose for us.

Here is the gang at dinner.

Waiting for cocktails.

During dinner we met the head of the restraunt and wine specialist. He invited us to his wine room.

His number one choice. We will be back.

Then it was a quick walk home to this surprise. Ready for another sleep. Those two ladies could not wait to see the animals!

Our special place. See you tomorrow. Dreaming of elephants, lions, hippos, and giraffes!

Good night!
