In the summer of 2011 I made the long journey to Kenya Africa on a mission trip. Our team worked at a children’s home outside of Nairobi.
We did, however, take a day during that time to go on an African safari. Here are a few pictures taken from that safari. The pictures were taken by a few different people that so sweetly allowed me to use their pictures.
The vans open up on the top so we could stand up to take pictures.
After a few hours on the road we finally made it to the safari park and this was the first rest stop.
The water coming out of the waterfall looked like mud.
I love how you can see the roots of this tree growing down the mountain.
Another stop was this beautiful lake abounding with birds of all sorts. An absolutely amazing sight!
There were so many different kinds of deer.
Monkeys and Baboons were everywhere along this trip.
The giraffes were so beautiful and graceful and they seemed to be in no hurry.
The zebras were everywhere. We even saw them at the children’s home. Often we saw the zebras and the giraffes together.
They lions were actually quite a distance away from us. There were three of them sleeping up in a tree.
And at the end of the day, this lookout point was our last stop. Breathtaking!
Then God said, “Let the earth bring forth the living creature according to its kind: cattle and creeping thing and the beast of the earth, each according to its kind”; and it was so. Genesis 1:24
