Kenya Safari
        
             The 7-day game drives took me to the scrubby savannahs of Samburu National Reserve.  The grevy zebras and the unique recticulated giraffes are indigeneous animals to this area.  
            The Ark, located deep in the jungle of the National Park of Aberdare, offers visitors a close encounter with the animals at the various water-holes and salt-licks.  The animals would come out at night to drink and forage for food.
            At Lake Nakuru, you could witness a large concentration of pink flamingos, estimated to be over a million.  It was indeed a breathtaking sight.
            My safari ended at the world famous and huge National Park of Masai Mara where you could meet many species of wild animals and birds, particularly the world tallest giraffe (which is different from Samburu) in its vast open grassland flanked by the Serengeti National Park of Tanzania.  You will definitely find this place intriguing.
