The Master Cheetah
Mt. Kilimanjaro – Amboseli Nat. Park
Mombasa aerial
Thanks to AO for the pics. The fusion of ancient and the modern.
Diani beach
Diani beach, la paradise, the cool white sand, the light green blue clear azure water felt like jumping in, only if I had brought my trunks along. Of all the landscapes my favourite is a beach.
Drove till Lunga Lunga Kenya-Tanzania border post, on the way back stopped at Mwazaro.
Kat and Winslet
Nairobi cats. My new neighbours.
Antelopes of Nairobi National Park
Predators of Nairobi National Park
The park had lots of Lions, Cheetahs and Leopards (I have never seen them) in the 90s. The Cheetahs are long gone, and the Lions are dwindling.
One of my favourite was a cheetah with her cubs, it was so beautiful watching them playing.
Birds of Nairobi National Park
Climbing Mt. Longonot
Mt. Longonot (2776M) is an dormant volcano that blew its top off, some million of years ago (scientists) and lies inside the Rift Valley. The Mountain has become a favourite hiking hobby for enthusiast and begginers, and lies inside Longonot National Park.
From the gate to the apex is 8KM long and a very hard steep climb that totally takes your breath out. It took me 1hr 15 min to climb, if you are healthy enough you can do it in 45 min. The pics were from my 2MP phone and are not that high tech.
Looking at the crater size from the summit, beautiful and damn huge. The circumference of the crater is 16KM! People actually walk around it, I opted out, was too tired. You can see how steep it is.
Looking at the valley from on top, you can see L. Naivasha on the left.
Can you see where I started from, the gate is the green square in the middle of the photo.
Look at this great aerial photo by tambako.
