East Africa





Jambo!!! (hi, welcome in African), well I am sitting in my room quarantined for 24hrs. got a taste of a bug that’s onboard, oh well, it’s giving me the chance to catch up on this… so firstly Kenya!, we went on a safari, and as you can see we saw loads of wildlife in its environment, we have some awesome images and it was a totally mindblowing day, we had a 2.5 hr drive to the park from the port via a crazy main road, it was a moving day in a lot of respects as we went passed many villages and settlements and got to see the real Kenya. Next was Zanzibar, Tanzania. A cool place, people there are really nice, Zoe and I went out into the town and down some streets where no one would go, another great experience, it was very hot!. Then onto Comoro Island, we got a taxi to a beach, ended up way outa the way from anyone but local people and had a blast playing and swimming with 20 odd local kids, every day has been amazing, the type of days that are etched in your mind forever, you have so many experiences and feelings while in these places because of the poverty, but also because of the people you meet and how they are happy in their environment. Right now we are in madagasca, I am totally gutted I cannot get off the ship as I have wanted to see this place for a long long time, mainly to get an image of a Lemur, ahh well, I hope Zoe gets one!. Till next time ….

woohoo, outa quarantine :-)
