Long-necked girls



So, Kris, if you were an animal what would you be?

I would be this long-necked beauty and bat those eyelashes wherever I would go.


This girl was minding her own business when we pulled up in our safari truck to watch her eat leaves and walk those long legs across the plains. She now appears in our photo album with the likes of zebras, elands, cape buffalo, warthogs, a secretary bird, a variety of gazelles, one ostrich (and one ostrich egg) dick-dicks, and two white rhinos named Kofi Annan and Elizabeth(they have both been to Kenya).


It was an awesome afternoon. We spent 3 1/2 hours driving around looking for animals and finding them! We will take a shorter drive at 6:30 in the morning when they are all waking up and looking for breakfast. We hope to see a lion, elephants and wildebeests.


Jeff says I should be on Facebook because I would have more followers, but I think 19 is enough for me. Maybe "something" will follow me tomorrow and I will have a story to tell.


Here is something interesting about the Mara Safari Club: fast internet but no electricity from midnight to 4:40 am. Guess I won't be curling my hair in the night.
