MASAI MARA GAME RESERVE
Part 1 of 5
This posting is for our children's friends and their cousins who are waiting for pictures of the "African Experience"! Afterall, don't zoo animals run wild in Africa? They used to... but now with more people around, most of them are out on protected games reserves. These places are HUGE and you can drive around for a long time and still not see it all. Most American visitors like to go see the wild animals in the "Mara". It's in the northern part of the Serengeti National Park.
Back in October, the compound men and boys took a day or two off their busy schedules and went to visit one of these game reserves. All work and no play can burn a person out, you know...so away they went hoping to see some big animals. It's a 5 hour drive, with the last hour being very rough and bumpy.
The Masai tribe are a nomadic people with no land of their own really. We have a few here in Kisumu (Luo land) and most times you can easily identify them in purple robes with their longs legs sticking out the bottom. Another identification is the stretched out hole in their earlobes. In this particular game reserve location, there is a Masai village and they overall supervise the place.

The men camped here overnight among chirps and screeches of various kinds. They said it was safe.
You can hire a van and guide or go out on your own. Please stay inside....
