I am extremely nervous about our first day in Nairobi, the capital of Kenya. This city is not known to be very nice. Bag snatching, jewelry stealing, money taking are amoung the top things that happen to tourists. I just got done reading a site that said that bag snatching is very common, especially to new arriving tourists! Great, that will be us! And unfortunately, we arrive to the airport at 3:45 in the morning and don't meet up with our tour group until 6:00 at night. That means we have all day to figure out what to do. We certainly can't walk around town with all of our bags as that won't be safe at all. We are hoping to get into our hotel early, or at least be able to leave our bags there. We shall see! I already took off all my jewerly, so that won't be an issue. My fingers feel bare without my rings, but at least I know they'll be safe!
The rest of the trip.... traveling the game parks, sleeping with the animals, visiting the small villages.... I am so excited for!! It's pretty sad when I'm more nervous for the thiefs in the city instead of the wild animals in the parks!
I hope you all have a very MERRY CHRISTMAS! Enjoy your time with your family and friends! Eat lots of yummy cookies and candy! I'm really going to miss that this year! Mom brought some over to us, but it was gone within a few days! I wish I could have some more! I guess I'll have to wait until next year! Enjoy the end of 2010!
Look again in the middle of next week. I'll be sure to have some pictures posted of all our animal friends!!
Until then, I'll leave you with a wintery picture. This can be your last memory of us in case we get eaten by a lion!!

Oh, and I will take lots of pictures. I will also borrow a flip camera from work, and try to record some stuff so you guys can see the kids. :)
