Kenya, a Post Election Inspection


It has been a great week home but I am heading out again to Kenya a return to Africa. Post election tourism is way down after the riots almost by 70%. Word spreads fast and Kenyan wants the world to know that the situation has stabilized. The dollars that are brought into Kenya trickle down to very poor and needy people and the situation is desperate. Writers from the UK and the US will get a chance to see for themselves just what is going on in Kenya.

I am looking forward to game safaris and lodges under Mt. Kilimanjaro, as well as time in Mombassa and Nairobi. It will be such a pleasure to once again be under African skies and I am filled with hope that Kenya will weather its current dilemma.

My mom just returned from two weeks in Kenya and Tanzania. Her group was one of the only groups in the country due to the instabilities. As a result, the government extended all sorts of benefits to them, such as a private flight to replace what would have been a six-hour bus trip, a banquet, and some other things. She had a great time there and never felt in danger.
