How to excite your lady

As usual the day started with the traditional hearty breakfast. This included altitude pills and malaria pills.

The gang loading up.

Yesterday I introduced you to Joseph our driver and guide. Here he is by our cruiser.

Our man Joseph.

He found this hat! The word has spread internationally about our efforts.

Love the hat!

First stop was the national park of Nairobi. Here is a picture of our first animal sighting. The ladies are head over heels in excitement.

One of a herd.

Our second sighting.

Zebra riding is not permitted.

The animals just keep on coming.

Yes. That is a rhino.
Hippos taking a swim.
A water buffalo.

I could go on but you get the picture. So many animals. But time to move on to the elephant nursery.

The highlight for me.
Elephants without mothers being fed baby formula.
Like kids. Elephants playing in the mud. I was good at it.
Done with the mud. Now a coating of dust to prevent bugs. I need to try this.

While watching the elephants the “mosque ladies” as Nate has named them popped up again. Maybe we will take them with us.

After the elephants we went to a local shop where clay animals and beaded goods are made.

Kobe means turtle.

The ladies checking out the goods.

Which color do you like?

While there the locals broke out into a native dance. Those two ladies from the mosque joined in! They have rhythm.

Dancing the afternoon away.

Lunch at a special spot.

Yes. I had a cheese burger.

Our outdoor table.

Our table.

Then the highlight of the day for the ladies. The giraffe nursery.

Waiting for their tickets.
Giraffes begging for food.
Lynn feeding a giraffe. Me faking it.
A four month old waiting for its mom.
Yes. That is the Princess. She is bonding with her giraffe.

We also had an informative session with a guide/intern. Victor was his name. His passion is giraffes.

Here is the gang posing for its daily group shot.

Looking good gang!

And of course the giraffe needs his picture taken.

Check out the tongue, if you like big tongues!

One last shot of my second favorite animal. I am thinking of applying to be an elephant trainer. Thoughts?

Looking for a good name for him!

See you in the morning.

Until next time!
