Safari Vacation: The Round-Up

August 27, 2019

Now that I have shared all of the things that we did while in Kenya, I thought I would do a quick round-up post of where we stayed, what we packed, and what we enjoyed! First things first. We went to Kenya at the end of July. We were there for almost 2 full weeks (left on a Sunday evening and returned on a Saturday). This was our 3rd time ...

Safari Vacation: Masai Mara Day 3

August 27, 2019

On our last morning in Masai Mara, we started the day with a hot air balloon ride. Our lodge was about 75 minutes from where you take off, so we had to wake up around 4:30am to get there in time. It was EARLY. Way too early with little ones. They were great. The ride was fun. But, we saw so many animals up close every single day... so next ...

Safari Vacation: Masai Mara Day 2

August 27, 2019

We woke up early on day two so that we could take a morning drive to the river. The only time we had any rain on our trip was when we were staying in a tent... go figure, ha! Thankfully the rain did not stop us, and it did help cover up the noise that the hyenas and wildebeests made ALL night long. We learned quickly that we all needed to have a ...

Safari Vacation: Masai Mara Day 1

August 27, 2019

When we left Borana I was very very nervous. Jared told me that we were staying in a "tent" with no electricity. I'm sure he told me about Saruni Wild while planning our trip, but I may not have listened because I had ZERO recollection of that conversation! Listen, I can do without my cell phone. I can do without my computer. I can do without ...

Safari: Borana Day 3

August 16, 2019

Our last day in Borana was more special than we ever could have imagined! Here is how it all started... We bundled up to do a drive around 4:30pm. The kids had tea and cake at the lodge before loading into our vehicle. We had heard that some of the lions had hunted the night before, so our guide took off looking for the them. Since lions ...

Safari: Borana Day 2

August 16, 2019

First of all, can we talk about the weather in Borana again? I told y'all before that it was pretty chilly, and it was... but the fact that I got to wear SWEATSHIRTS in July made me soooooo happy! On day two in Borana we decided to relax at the lodge in the morning. The views were so breathtaking, and we had been going NONSTOP up until that ...

Safari: Borana Day 1

August 7, 2019

After we spent three days in Samburu, we took about a 2 hour drive to Borana. Borana Conservancy lies at the foot of Mount Kenya in the Laikipia area. We so loved our time in Samburu, so we were a little worried about leaving. Would we have as good of a time? Would we see as many animals? Extraordinary Journeys planned out our three days at ...

Warrior Academy

August 6, 2019

Our last day in Samburu was such a special day. Saruni Samburu has guides that are a part of one of the oldest remaining tribes in Africa. The Samburu people are loving, welcoming, and so helpful. They welcomed us into one of their villages to that we could learn about their nomadic way of life. They welcomed us with songs, dances, and lots ...

Saruni Samburu Day 2

August 6, 2019

Day 2 in Samburu is now one that I will never ever forget. We woke up around 6:30am for a morning drive around Samburu National Reserve. We were having such a wonderful morning. We had seen so many animals and had a beautiful breakfast by the river. We had baboons walking right past us, elephants come up to drink, and watched crocodiles in the ...

Saruni Samburu Day 1

August 4, 2019

Now that we are back from our trip {and have wi-fi again} we can share pictures from our time spent in Kenya! For our first three nights we stayed at Saruni Samburu. Saruni Samburu is a lodge that overlooks Kalama Conservancy. We had beautiful views right from our back porch. Honestly, we had no idea what to expect during our safari trips. ...
