| "Kenya,
the heart of the Africa. The unending potpourri of life
that explodes in Kenya is almost overwhleming. From the
wonder of the millions of flamingo that color the great
Lake Nakuru, to the wild and untamed animals of the Masai
Mara, Kenya will always hold a special and mystical place
in my heart." |
