Lukenya and beyond

We finally made it to Kenya, after 16 hours of flying. Lukenya is an oasis in the serengeti, and the staff was warm and welcoming as they always are. Everyone was awoken today to the many birds and animal sounds that accompanied the sunrise. Most were not happy with the natural alarm clocks because of the 2-3 hours of sleep everyone had, in addition to the jet lag. As the sun rises over head the weather is becoming warm, almost 80 degrees, and everyone is in shock. While the sun is envirgorating it quickly becomes intolerable because of the close proximity to the equator. In the next couple of hours we will be making our trek to Tanzania and seeing the many faces of Kilimanjaro. I will post more pictures and blogs as we determine the availability of wifi services, which can often be flakey since everything is solar powered and we come during the rainy season.
