Sleeping under the Roof of Africa

'The 2nd most popular park!'  they said,  'Home of Elephants!'  they said, 'The best kept secret!'  they said,  and my personal favorite  - 'If you must climb Mt.Kilimanjaro, go to Tanzania..but if you want to see Mt.Kilimanjaro in all her Glory, go to KENYA' (undeniably accurate)

That's basically whats running through my mind while on the way to Kenya's Amboseli National Park. My new friend Liz (check out seven wonders), gives the window a blank stare - Sure Liz; one day we'll talk about Nairobi's traffic... there after, we may solve the monstrous mess that is the Mlolongo stretch. What's a journey without good company.

We arrive at Kibo Safari Camp and the first thing I notice is the beautifully crafted lobby, complete with locally - inspired design. This charming facility has its own story. A story of tranquility, serenity and beauty all wrapped in one: much like a ham sandwich - or Shawarma - which I still owe Sue, curator at the Shaffiey.
