I am back from an incredible safari in Kenya and Tanzania. It would be more accurate to say I am only partially back, as jet lag persists. I should not be surprised: it took four days to get used to being nine hours ahead. Only now I am nine hours behind.
In any event, I wanted to begin sharing a few images from the last few weeks. It will take me some time to go through all the pictures, but I will be posting more as soon as I am able.
As it turns out my laptop died shortly after I arrived in Nairobi so I started editing on the camera to save room on the flash memory cards. I think I only accidentally deleted one better photograph of a less-than-flashy bird…
Not wanting to take any chances, today I downloaded all the pictures to my desktop, which machine has also been unreliable. I then copied everything onto an external hard drive.
I look forward to a new laptop, namely one that is not confused by software updates. I am contemplating switching to a MacBook Pro. One adventure after another.
Please click on the pictures for larger images.
With luck I will have a sizable collection on my flickr page by Christmas… Except I get redirected away from the flickr page login from every other machine except the dead laptop. What to do, what to do…
P.S. It’s snowing in Chicago!
Wonderful post. I’m so glad our paths have crossed here. Thank you!
Thanks, Ann! So glad you like my blog. 🙂

Thanks so much, Syl! My head is still in Africa… 🙂
Although the big animals are impressive, the yellow collared lovebird hits the mark for me.
What an amazing trip, you are truly an adventurous soul. I want a yellow collared love bird right now! On the other hand, whoever named the secretary bird must not have liked her secretary. Looking forward to seeing more from your trip!
