A very good and complete page about Kenya. No wonder, if you have been there so many times! And you were at Meru. That is a place I would like to see once, too. Corinne

Great shots of local people and surely animals. Very red roads haha. I do hope balloon safari (great idea!) is less expensive than a flight safari :-)

What a wonderful trip! Thanks for taking us VTers along. I never would have thought of rhino poo as a hazard, and the photo of all the safari rigs tells quite a story about Kenya's popularity.
