I was a primary teacher in a K-12 alternative school. In 2006, I took a leave for four months, travelling through Central America. I visited schools and studied Spanish along with being a tourist. My class followed my travels through this blog. I have continued to use this blog to keep friends, family and my students connected to my travels, recently in Mexico and now Kenya! 2009 I am now retired and my husband and I hope to do even more traveling! I am volunteering in an after-school program on the Indian reservation where we live and at the local art museu... full info

The cheetah is spotted (a pun)

A crested crane

They mate for life and both males and females look exactly alike.

Our safari group at 6:00 am...

From left to right, Simon and his parents, Anne and Anders, me, Simon, our guide in the striped shirt, Peter and his wife Therese (who is Congolese).

Grazing herds of gnus or wildebeasts

Mongoose

Warthog in the foreground

It had three young one with it. Their tusks can break your leg...

The show off cheetah

He was sleeping in the shade of a lone tree when we arrived...soon he was posing: washing, stretching, standing and lying back down!

Simon spotted these literally a mile away. I don't know how he does it...he's a genius!

I think they look like big turkeys

Rain coming over the savannah

Cape buffalo

These were the only animals that seemed to be aware of our presence. They are dangerous, but look very placid....I think they just forget they've seen the vans and each time one comes by, they are surprised...

More gnus

They are constantly running in one direction, and then changing..

Leaving the Masai Mara....
