Promise

The kitchen smells of dish-soap and you hum softly to the radio in the kitchen, whilst cleaning the dishes from tonight's dinner. The bedroom door squeaks and Nairobi sneaks out of the son, Axels room, softly shutting the door behind her. She lets out a sigh and walks up to you, putting her arms around your waist and pulls you close. The engagement ring on her long fingers shine in the dim lighted kitchen, and a smile creeps up on your face, despite the exhaustion after a night of no sleep. You still can’t believe you’ll get to marry her one day. 

“He’s finally asleep?”

“Yea. He’s too damn obsessed with those video games.” she murmurs, her breath warm against your shirt. 

“Aww, poor thing.” 

“Need help with the dishes, amore?” 

You look at the mountain of dirty plates and glasses and sighs. And you thought you were almost done.

“Yes, please.” 

She puts on some gloves too, and playfully nudges you to the side with her hip. You grin at her, and together you take care of the house. 

Half an hour later, you’re cuddled up on the couch. The traffic from outside fills the silence in the room, and a soft breeze from the open window strokes your face. You lean against your fiancées shoulder, nuzzling your face against her neck, inhaling her scent. Moments like this makes you both forget the chaotic life you live.

It’s been two years since the heist against the Bank of Spain, and the memories of it are fresh. You all got out safely, as according to the Professor's plan, but it was a close one. You still wake up at nights, sweaty and out of breath, when thinking of it all. It’s always there, in the back of your mind. For Nairobi, too. The worst part was almost losing her. You try to shake off the memories, and continue holding the woman you love. Your hands stroke her soft skin, until finding the scar on her stomach. The bullet that almost killed her. Almost. 

“You alright, darling?” Her voice is soft and sleepy. God, she’s perfect. As you stare at her beautiful face in awe - the dark eyes and crooked nose, and those lips - you forget to reply. 

“Hey?” 

“Hmmm?” 

She grins.

“Someones distracted?” She kisses your cheek and neck, causing a shiver to run down your spine. 

“No. I was just… Thinking.” 

“You look tired.” She strokes your cheek and her expression turns concerned. “You’re thinking of the heist.” 

“No.” But there's no point in lying to your fiancée. She can read you like an open book. Nairobi knows you better than anyone else. 

“I’ve been having nightmares.” you swallow down tears threatening to well up. Noticing how frantically you’re blinking your eyes, her face softens.

“Hey…” she pulls you in for a hug, and you allow yourself to sob. 

“We’re okay.” Nairobi whispers. You seek her warmth, her comfort and love. She’s like a drug. 

“I almost lost you.”

She tenses a bit, before continuing to rub your back soothingly.

“But you didn’t.” she tries. 

You look up at her, but it’s hard to look mad when she gives you that sheepish smile. 

“I’m right here.” Still not having convinced you, she sighs “And I’m not going anywhere.” 

“Promise?” 

She wipes the tears from your puffy eyes and looks at you. Her dark eyes meet yours, and you can almost see your own reflection in them. 

How many times have you not had this conversation? How many times have you woken up in panic, thinking she’s gone? How many times has Nairobi panicked, thinking she doesn’t deserve you, nor her son? Promise. That has become your mantra. A word the two of you repeat, time after time, whenever shit gets rough.

“I promise.” she says, and you let out a shaky, yet relieved exhale. From Axel's room, soft snores can be heard. You giggle.

“He’s such a damn heavy sleeper. Like his mama.” 

Nairobi laughs and squeezes you tight to her chest.

“I’m not! And I don’t snore.” 

Your face says it all, and she grins.

“Alright! Maybe I do.” 

You sit on the couch, cuddled up for a long time, a comfortable silence falling between the two of you.

“I love you.” you whisper.

“I love you too.”

You look at her again, and almost lose your breath. You’ve been through hell and back with her, and sometimes it’s hard to believe that you’re both sitting here, safe and sound. She’s breathtakingly beautiful, like the first time you saw her, in the Toledo House before the first heist. Now, years later, she’s still the most beautiful woman you’ve laid eyes on. 

“I can’t wait to marry you.” you whisper, totally in awe of her. 

“I can’t wait to marry you either. And then, you’ll be mine forever.” 

Now it’s her turn to look at you intensely. She doesn’t say it out loud, but when she looks at you, she can see the future in them. She hates the sense of familiarity those puffy eyes gives her. She’s seen you cry many times. The only thing that hurt more than getting shot, was seeing the panic and devastation written on your face. The pain as you screamed her name and begged her to stay alive. And then it was the tears of relief when she woke up after the surgery. It is something Nairobi will never forget. 

She’s made a promise to herself, too. To keep you - and Axel - safe no matter what. After everything she’s been through, she finally has hopes for the future, thanks to you.

“Forever, huh? Sounds good.” You give her a playful grin. “Promise you’ll love me forever?”

She rolls her eyes, but still can’t resist your playful charm. Nairobi leans closer. With her lips against yours, she whispers:

“I promise.”

3 | Tracing the Author's Path

Pairing: Sanzu x Fem!Reader

The Book of Salvation

Later that night, after a few too many drinks, you stumble back to Amaya's house, which happens to be the closest one. Drunk and elated, you collapse onto one side of her bed and fall fast asleep.

It's not until the next morning, as you groggily reach for your phone, that you realize you had given your number to Sanzu. Panic surges through you as both your friends frantically try to steal your phone and text him. Thankfully, you manage to evade them and respond to his message before they can get in the way.

After a few texts, he offers a casual invitation for coffee at a small spot he knows, a place far from the eyes of the paparazzi. You agree, and to your surprise, you have a genuinely good time.

Now, about a week has passed since that coffee date, and you find yourself irresistibly drawn to him. His passion for his music and genuine kindness are so attractive. You've hung out a couple more times, purely as friends, but the connection between you seems to deepen with every meeting.

The third time you hang out, Sanzu offers you tickets to his upcoming concert the following weekend. Of course, you say yes, and when you share the news with your friends, your ears nearly fall off.

Now you're at Amaya's house, getting ready for the upcoming night with your friends. The three of you gather in her bedroom, surrounded by clothes and makeup.

As you pick out your outfit and apply your makeup, Nairobi shoots you a mischievous look. "So, is anything finally gonna happen with Sanzu tonight?"

Amaya then chimes in, "Yeah, there's no way you haven't fallen in love with him yet."

You can't help but smile at their antics. "Well, we're just friends for now."

"Hm," Amaya hums as she tries on the next dress in a long line of options. "That didn't really answer my question."

Nairobi grins and then jokes, "Hey, you know, we have backstage passes. Anything goes backstage, right?"

Amaya agrees as she zips up her dress, "What happens backstage, stays backstage."

"Exactly," Nairobi nods as she reaches for her phone. "Now hurry up, Maya, you're taking so long and I want to call the Uber soon."

Amaya rolls her eyes playfully. "Okay, fine, I'm done, and I'll go with this one."

Nairobi heaves a dramatic sigh of relief. "Thank you." She then orders the Uber and confirms the ride.

As you wait for the car, you all head downstairs to Amaya's well-stocked bar. You grab a bottle of rum, and with shot glasses in hand, you clink them together. "Cheers!"

After a few rounds, Nairobi checks her phone. "Hey, the Uber's here," she announces. And then, you all pile into the car.

You arrive at the concert venue right on time at 9 PM, just when the opening act is supposed to start. To your surprise, as soon as you step inside, a person approaches you, ready to escort you backstage. So, you follow their lead, a mix of excitement and nervousness bubbling within you.

The escort knocks on a door that reads Haruchiyo Sanzu. Your heart races, and your face burns when he opens the door. Without hesitation when he notices you, he wraps his arms around your waist, his warm breath brushing against your ear as he whispers, "I'm glad you came. You look so beautiful."

You can practically feel the smirks on your friends' faces, and a shiver runs down your spine. After releasing you from his embrace, he greets and hugs your friends, who look like they're about to faint from sheer excitement.

Sanzu then extends yet another offer to you and your friends. "We've got an hour before I go on. The opener never ends on time, it's annoying, but hey, they're happy, so whatever. Do you want to come in?"

After accepting gratefully, the three of you follow him inside where he introduces you to the rest of Earthpig's members. He then takes you gently by the hand and leads you to one of the beautiful couches in the room. 

You watch as he plucks a joining from one of the other bandmates and takes a hit. He then offers it to you and you follow his lead.

As the room fills with the familiar haze, Sanzu asks what the three of you think of the night's venue. Amaya quickly replies with a not-so-astute answer. "It's huge!"

Sanzu smiles, a hint of pride in his voice. "It's one of my favorite places to play."

You pass the joint to Nairobi, who's sitting nearby. Meanwhile, Sanzu's hand rests comfortably on your thigh, and your heart flutters at the gesture. You hate to admit it but Amaya might be right. It would be very hard not to find yourself falling for this guy. He's always been so honest with you. And now, sitting beside him once more, you're beginning to realize the depth of your own feelings. Besides, you typically don't want to make out with someone you consider to be just your friend.

Sometime later, one of Sanzu's bandmates announces that it's time to prepare for the stage and they all begin to stand. Your group then makes their way to the door and into the hallway. 

But before you part ways, Sanzu takes you gently by the wrist and pulls you closer to him. He leans in, his voice low, and asks, "Can I kiss you, Y/N? Just for good luck?"

A moment of hesitation hangs in the air, but then you nod, unable to resist the magnetic pull between you two. 

"Use your words, pretty girl. I know you're good with them," he then adds softly.

In a soft, barely audible voice, you whisper, "Yes."

With that, he leans in and kisses you, and the world seems to blur into a swirl of intoxicating sensations. When he pulls away, you're so lost in the moment that you instinctively try to kiss him again. But he pulls back, a playful smirk dancing on his lips. "I'll see you later," he says.

You nod slowly, your thoughts still spinning. "Yeah, later," you respond, watching as he walks away.

Amaya breaks the silence, saying, "Woah."

Nairobi adds with a chuckle, "Shit, Y/N, that might be the worst form of teasing ever."

All you can manage is a nod, still captivated by the lingering taste of his kiss. Amaya takes you by the hand, even though your gaze remains fixed on where Sanzu disappeared. She says, "Come on, let's go find our spots. The show's going to start soon."

cady hasn’t missed homeschool in forever, for your information. she doesn’t miss being left to her own devices, of which there were next to none in the matter of gadgetry manufactured after the twentieth century. yes, she had fun making cairns out of broken abaci, but now she has real interests, like keeping up with music that makes her ears cry and going to malls that give her hypothermia. she doesn’t miss extirpating essays and dioramas obsessed with the past and ruining her chances at a normal future with friends and/or loyal followers. yes, she was too busy applying cuticle creams under her desk to pay attention to their analysis the tragedy of julius caesar, but she trusts that mentally homogenising those parties can only end in happiness. she doesn’t miss her parents picking her up. yes, she hates the bus because it’s always late and the driver always has to get out and argue with the owners of pets he almost runs over, but she barely talks to them over breakfast anymore, anyways.

maybe she misses gretchen treating her like a person instead of a sounding board. she can see the lecture hall now as they step out of school; squint a little and she can read the sans serif text tepidly projected onto a screen: why is gretchen wieners so desperate, so voluble, so courageous yet so compliant? are her mating instincts triggered by seeing memes about regina’s pole being thoroughly rocked? does her existence rely on a hamster wheel spun by noise? there’s a voice in her head going stop thinking that, she’s your friend and another going stop thinking that she’s your friend but cady knows that if she stops thinking she’ll have to start thinking about getting her test signed and getting her hair wet because the sky’s turned a deep, dark grey and gretchen must’ve talked herself vacant of saliva an hour ago.

@fetchkitty — ❛ is there anything else i can do for you? ❜ ( accepting. )

that’s better, gretch. use the somewhat pretty head beneath that secret-holding hair for something productive. “ well, i know we’re technically rivals now, but you’d never let that get between our friendship, right? i mean, it’d be totally awkward if you or karen had to dance with any of the nominees for king. “ the smile on her face is totally murdering her zygomaticus muscles. her nails are digging into the crumpled paper that is her calculus test, but her other hand is reaching for gretchen’s and she hopes that’s enough of a distraction. “ i was thinking we could update all of my social media accounts. wouldn’t want someone digging up my linkedin and deciding i care too much about the degradation of nairobi national park to be cool. ” she clears her throat before she can start citing the university of hawaiʻi. discussion for another time, with another time meaning when she’s lowered into her grave. “ for example. “

she attempts to retrieve her water bottle from her backpack, dislodging even more of kevin’s business cards. the wind sends them soaring to the quad, the bus stop, wherever the cady who cared too much about pollution went. “ when are you getting picked up? maybe we could spend some time at a restaurant or your house or whatever. “

Sept 10-17, 2023

I had planned to write this blog on Substack but it got too complicated for me so I will continue these African Adventure posts on Tumblr.com.

This will be the journey to Kenya to participate in the volunteer program of African Impact in the Pardamat conservancy of the Kenya National Wildlife Reserve, Masai Mara.

What a long journey from Hawaii to Kenya. Fortunately I have a very good friend, Maggie, in Pacific who I get to visit when I am passing through San Francisco. I stayed two nights in her delightful company and rested up before the long flight to Kenya.

I arrived several days several days after I was exposed to Covid at work. I wore a mask on the flight but where 5 days had passed we thought we were safe, which proved to be true, but I was not fully comfortable till the 14th day had passed. I never got it. Hooray! Those around me could breathe a sigh of relief as well. I am vaccinated up to the gills so maybe that saved me?

Anyway, I digress. i flew KLM. airways which is marvelous. Great service. Seems they were always offering food or drink or hot towels. I watched 4 movies on the first leg which ended in Amsterdam for a three hour layover.

Because I get wheelchair service, I did not find my friend Joanne who was also traveling on the same flight to our destination in Kenya till we were ready to board the next flight for the final leg of our journey.

We got in somewhere around 10:30 PM after an aborted landing because there was debris on the landing strip! Finally after circling and losing our place in the landing line we did so.

Went thru the usual immigration and customs, again not seeing Joanne. I went outside and waited and waited, and was getting worried. A nice young soldier asked what I needed and he called the man who was to-pick us up, who was with Bonfire Adventures and tours. He found us and we waited some more. Finally Joanne appeared and we walked to the car and were driven to Masai Lodge near the town of Rongai. It is on the Southern border of the National Park. The drive took over an hour. The last 3 miles over an horrendous dirt road. We arrived around 1 AM pooped but happy to be back in Kenya.

We love that lodge. It. is mainly for the local people. Despite its name, it is run primarily by Samburu people. the Samburu are cousins to the Maasai. The lodge looks out over the Nairobi Game Park. Animals come into the large green area below the lodge which sits on a hill. There we see warthogs, antelope and baboons. There are tree hyrax and rock hyrax busy in the surrounding areas. The tree hyrax are quite used to people. Cute little creatures resembling a bunny without the long ears.

The 4 nights at the lodge allowed us to get over jet lag and start to get used to the altitude. It is like Denver, a mile high.

I was able to visit my dear friend, Dr. Paul Sayer, my colleague from teaching at the veterinary School in Nairobi back in 1967-1969. It was delightful to be with him and catch up on our lives and reminisce about the old days. (See-my book African Sojourns on Amazon.com to see what we did back then…)

The next day Joanne and I went to visit her friend, Rachel Kabue, who founded and runs The Cat Sanctuary in Nairobi. There are about 170 cats there now as she found homes for close to 130 of the most fit ones recently. Some there are very thin, and I fear may have some sort of blood parasite or Feline leukemia. However most are quite fit; they are all sweet and get along. She also has rescued a few dogs who live together with the cats. It is scrupulously clean with no odor.

Rachel, Some of the cats and dogs, Denise and friend, and Joanne and another rescue.

I spent one day sleeping a lot. Another day we had a guided walk by a Samburu man in full regalia looking very exotic and handsome in his colorful short dress like outfit with knee high socks and beaded ornaments and carrying the spear in case we ran into any aggressive animals. As it happened we only saw Impala and some monkeys and baboons. We met up with two Masai gentlemen in Western clothes who ran a nearby lodge and were friendly and fun. They all wanted photos which Joanne took but I have not got them right now. Will send next time.

The African Impact Driver came for us to transport us to Brackenhurst Conference Center in the Highlands in a town called Limuru. It is at 7000 feet so it has rather brisk evenings. It always tickles me when there, as after dinner, I come back to a bed with a hot water bottle in it. There we rested till the next morning where we would start out at 8:30 AM for the long drive to Pardamat.

I will write more tomorrow about the first week at the volunteer placement.

10:19pm Listening to Kirby Loved by you, sitting in my room in Karen with Kendi. Yo! Life is so Gøod. I am clearly on a romantic high hihihi but here we are. I had such a Gøod weekend. Munene got here and didn’t even make it into the house. SweSwe offered him a seat outside and they proceeded to drink tea and chat for HOURS. Moka wa Mwiti and Karimi also clicked with him and they talked meru history, traditions, family connections, jokes and so much more. I was just floating in some parts. We had some really Gøod laughs. I could see they were so happy to have him there. Like deep joy and reverence. I feel like who I have become is who they dreamed I would be. After hours of their conversation, which I could not and would not interrupt because it made me happy as well, we finally left. We walked to the hub then went and got supper at McFry’s. It was a simple yummy meal. We had a conversation on hopes and dreams and what I Love about him is we always end up on the same page. Always. Is this Love? Anyway, then we went to an air bnb for a likkle one on one staycation. It was a lovely spot and the number was 1018 which helluur 18. It was on the 10th floor with a pretty nice view of Nairobi especially at night. We had the best night. Like yo, I am so happy. I am so grateful to the Universe and Creator for bringing me to this point in my life and for bringing a deep Love into my life. It feels sooo Gøod. Our Love languages match so hard. So yeah, it was a magikal night. I Love me. I Love him. I Love Life. I Love the Life we are making. We had a slow sunday, got up, got food at the rooftop restaurant then went back to the airbnb and took a cuddly nap. We woke up, came to Karen and again he sat with the elders and they chatted for hours. Everyone in the house is soooo happy about him. LMAO. I cannot even. Yo, even Baby Jason Mwenda was playing with him yesterday, it was so cute. A glimpse into our future. Hehe. Today, we walked down to the farm and checked out the cows and rabbits. As we walked down, we reminisced on how we used to walk that same lane as pre-teens. Life is so interesting eh. Anyway, today is Sunday so it was family day at the house so he came into a full house and folx kinda caught on to our vibe. We are mad subtle but also Love is LOUD. It is so funny that I am writing on Love in the Gøod manifesto, or I am supposed to be writing on Love and here I am falling in Love. Remember that thing about each teaching taught me a real life lesson. I am so glad Love was the last one to write because as I am writing it, I am falling in Love. The last time I fell in Love was 15 yrs ago and that was the only time I ever fell in Love. Now here I am again and I am ready. I am willing. I am. I am so deeply in Love with myself that I know I can Love and be Loved. I really like Sundays at the house because we have family but also because it is cabbage for supper day. Yo, I love cabbage. I had three bowls of it till my belly literally hurt. I came upstairs to lie down because I was soo full. I was hoping to draw instead of write today but my Krita disappeared and I don’t have the vibes to redownload it. So I will likely draw with pen and pencil in a few days. I am feeling the urge to draw creep back in. Crazy eh. It’s been a while. KaMami and LoustaLoustaman get here tomorrow. I am so hyped to see them and spend time with them in the city of God. I Love Life. Life is Gøod. I am Gøod. I am Saint. Ase. Ase.

Travel to Tsavo for a true "Out of Africa" Experience

We stayed in a farm in Africa, at the foot of the Ngong Hills.  But that isn't really the start of our adventure.  It really started in Mombasa and getting picked up by our guide/driver Sammy.  He will be with us for the next 6 days from Mombasa to Tsavo to Amboseli National Park and then onto Nairobi.  Sammy is friendly, easy to talk to and knowledgeable about not just mammals but about all the birds that we are seeing.  This was especially important to Kati who loves to photograph all the birds in Africa.  It took us a couple of hours to get to our lodge in Tsavo East and the time went by quickly. We stayed at Satao Camp and were lucky enough to get the tent closest and facing a very popular water hole.  Like watching "Animal TV", over the next couple of days and nights we saw herds of elephants, antelope, giraffes, hippos and warthogs walk out of the bush and come to this waterhole.  This was the start of our adventure, and we were happy to be back in Africa.

Why Tsavo?

Tsavo is the place where there were two man-eating lions roamed and ate over 100 people in 1898 as depicted in the movie The Ghost and the Darkness starring Val Kilmer and Michael Douglas.  Tsavo East is the largest game park in Kenya, and it was a choice we had to make: Tsavo East or Tsavo West.  We chose Tsavo East mainly because of Satao Camp, and we are happy we did.  Over the next 4 days we saw lions after a kill, the red elephants of Tsavo, hippos, giraffes, and a leopard in a tree with its kill.  The landscape was surreal.  Dusty and dry, Tsavo needed the rains.  But they never came while we were there.  We also found The Real Africa, like the one described by Isak Dinesen's book Out of Africa.   Set out in the middle of the bush, our camp and the water hole were perfectly situated for the game drives and to see a multitude of animals coming and going from miles away to drink. We could experience the joy of the elephants coming over a ridge and seeing the water hole.  Herds of zebra and antelope.  We even had a genet in the dining room that came one night looking for food.  With the fire roaring, we ate delicious food for breakfast, lunch and dinner and had game drives most mornings and evenings.  We had a whole day game drive on one of the days and it proved spectacular as we saw 5 lions on a hunt, and then they came and sat down.  We were so close as they relaxed, slept and kept vigil.  This was an incredible experience and we really felt that we found The Real Africa.     This was why we came back to Africa.  It did not have the multitude of animals like Masai Mara, but it had the look and feel of a real African adventure.  Don't get me wrong, if there was one place, I would recommend seeing the Big 5 it would be the Masai Mara or to experience the Great Migration.  But we were looking for something different.  Something that I had not experienced since I lived in Africa. Something that was totally unexpected.  And Tsavo delivered.

An Incredible Adventure

This was the fourth time Kati and I have been to Kenya.  We have also explored Uganda and Egypt, and I have lived for over 4 years in Zimbabwe and almost a year in South Africa.  We have also traveled to Cape Verde, Botswana, and Morocco, so we are not strangers to the African continent. But this time we wanted something different.  We wanted an "Out of Africa" adventure filled with animals, tented camps and great scenery.  And we got just that. With our tent, beautifully decorated with old Africa furnishings and overlooking the water hole, we were able to view animals from a couple of kilometers away traveling through the dusty bush.  The obvious joy that elephants experience when finally viewing the water hold was incredible.  They would start to trot, flapping their ears almost with smiles on their faces.  Big Tuskers, mothers with their young, and single bulls all came and went. We never tired of it. In the evenings, Impala filled the camp while jackals were on the prowl.  Hippos left the water hole and went to graze all night returning in the morning and elephants took over.  Zebra, water buck and giraffe all visited.  And there was a genet who would come into the dining room looking for something to eat before heading back into the bush. From our tent and around the camp we also saw owls, eagles and oryx. This all happened before we even left for a game drive.  This was a nightly occurrence as we lie in bed watching the animals come and go in front of us.  It was amazing. There were many camps to choose from in Tsavo, but we chose Satao Camp.  It gave us that great adventure and "Out of Africa" feeling, and the cost was good.  We found the Real Africa and will return here in the future.

Game Drives

We had two private game drives a day set up.  Both in the morning and evening.  Sammy our guide suggested we take one day and go further into the park and spend the day.  Satao Camp prepared a lunch box for us and we set out on our journey.  Tsavo was incredibly dry and dusty.  The red earth filled with air as we looked for the iconic African animals.  Sammy was outstanding and knowledgeable about all the animals, the park, birds and where to go for the best views.  One of the best aspects of Tsavo is that it is uncrowded, and we were virtually alone most of the time we were there. The final day, as we were almost out of the park, looking for a cheetah, we heard that there was a leopard in a tree with its kill.  Sammy asked if we wanted to go back.  Of course we did!  A leopard in a tree?  That was on my want list for a long time.  Having seen 4 leopards previously, they were all on the ground I really wanted to see a leopard with a kill up in a tree. We raced to where it was and by the time we got there, the leopard left the tree.  But as we got discouraged, Sammy said he spotted it in another tree.  It had climbed up to keep an eye on his kill, and there he was.  Sammy spotted it and we were overjoyed as we snapped photos. Sammy was a great guide filled with knowledge and willing to share.  We loved spending our time with him and were sad when we left him in Nairobi.

Finally we found the Leopard in a tree. He had his kill in a nearby tree and kept watch.

Our Final Word

After four incredible days, we had to say goodbye to Tsavo.  It was filled with iconic African wildlife including leopards, lions, elephants, giraffe, kudu, waterbuck, impala, zebra, oryx, owls, eagles and a whole lot more.  We continued our adventure to Amboseli National Park which is famous for its large herds of elephants and spectacular views of Mount Kilimanjaro.  We will cover that part of the adventure in another post. We wanted to find the Real Africa and we did.  We wanted that true Out of Africa experience, and we got it in Tsavo.  We ate delicious food under the African moon, watched animals at the water hole, had incredible game drives with Sammy our guide every day and still had time to read, write and relax.  This adventure checked off all the boxes for us and we look forward to returning someday. If you are looking for a true, authentic African adventure that is not overrun by tourists then look to Tsavo and Satao Camp.  We just might see you there. Dennis would like that.   This map was created with Wanderlog, a trip planner on iOS and Android

First post this year, Sept 29, 2024

I have been in Kenya 16 days. Somehow it feels like an extension of last year, have I really  been away for nearly a year? Well,  yes,  and the old body feels the passage of time. For sure this is my last trip to Africa. I have be ben saying that for quite a few years, but the end is inevitable.

The  trip from Hawaii Island is always very long and tiring. This time extra so because of a 15 hour delay in Amsterdam due to a strike at the Jomo Kenyatta international Airport in Nairobi. People had risen up against the President Ruto’s decision to sell the airport to an Indian conglomerate or some such group. Foreign. Kenyans were incensed. 

.

My friend and colleague, Marta Lepes, was traveling to volunteer with me at Pardamat conservancy of the greater Masai Mara through the auspices of the volunteer organization, African  Impact.  It was comforting to have a friend bear the difficulties of travel with me. 

There are other organizations that send volunteers throughout the world and to our spot in Kenya such as Go Eco and Conservation Africa, Africa edu., etc.

We had a few days to acclimate to the altitude, (a mile high) of Nairobi as the altitude will be the same where we will be for a month  for Marta and 6 weeks for me. We stayed at Maasai Lodge on the Southern end on the Nairobi National Park about an hour’s drive from the airport. It is a delightful place with individual bandas situated above a river and overlooking the Park where occasionally giraffe, rhino, etc., could be viewed. It is a very large facility built to accommodate conferences and other large groups but done in a way that felt cozy with small lounges scattered here and there and dining tables perched in alcoves overlooking the river. A large swimming pool resides at the bottom of the hill and waiters traipse up and down the steep incline serving those that enjoy the pool and beauty of the lower area. An adjacent field is dotted with baboon, and antelope and sometimes wart hogs and other creatures. Tree and rock Hyraxes peak out from their hiding places. 

We spent one day just chilling and the next two days going to see the Sheldrick Widlife trust orphanage and the Nairobi Game  park on Friday then Sat to see Rachel Kabue and her Nairobi Cat Sanctuary. We were amazed to hear there were now 600 cats at the sanctuary, yet the animals were well fed, happy playful and although sometimes a bit crotchety with each other, harmony reigned the majority of the time. 

She also had 6 dogs as they too needed  a home. all this and no odor, the place was spotless. The place being a small house not a  concrete and steel enclosure like one might have expected.

Sunday we were picked up by the Volunteer organization and transported the relatively short distance of a couple of hours drive to Limuru  to the Brackenhurst Conference Center. A huge, beautiful facility which I have described in previous blogs. It is at an elevation of 7000 feet so the air is quite crisp. I love that after dinner when getting into the comfy beds with multiple blankets, someone has placed a hot water bottle at the foot of the bed. 

There we met up with 3 other volunteers, a couple from Montreal, Canada and a gal from Cape Cod in USA. We exchanged the usual info of names interests, etc to get to know one another.

We has a lovely dinner, a good night’s sleep, huge breakfast and off we went around 8:30 AM to traverse the long drive 5 to 6 hours (with a stop in the big town of Narok to buy stuff we’d not remembered to pack or yummy snacks at the huge supermarket) to Pardamat conservancy and the facilities called the Wildlife Tourism Center of the Maasai Mara. 

Now two weeks have passed by here. the routine consists of many hours in the game vehicle observing animals and counting them. I discussed this in my posts in the past so time for some photos. Also pulling weeds, picking up trash, and even digging a ditch for water drainage along side the dirt road. 

The rains have come very early. Thunder showers in the late afternoon many days. The rain brings the lush green grass, but makes the road ways dreadful.
