With all due respect to the Silver White Knight my buddy Marty the concern about bugs, malaria etc is what kept me away from Africa for so long. Also the thoughts of all the shots that were "recommended" using DEET etc. I really love seeing animals in the wild but I questioned whether it was worth all that.

Well then I went to Africa to Kenya and WOW is all I can say. YES it was worth it. Until you experience a safari it is hard to comprehend how fantastic it is. I would not want to spend weeks and weeks in a tented camp but the way we are doing this trip with "air conditioning" and all the luxury it seems like a dream come true. The animals in the wild and all the creature comforts this little princess needs to be content.
