Marc's African Adventure: Mamo is the Man

http://marcsafricanadventure.blogspot.com/2007/12/mamo-is-man.html

A 2 week journey to experience Kenya and Ethiopia. Thursday, December 6, 2007. Mamo is the Man. One of the best and most wonderful things about visiting the field is the people that you meet. My favorite people to meet and talk with are our national staff. I've met some pretty amazing ones so far, but Mamo is really the man. Posted by Marc Sirkin. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

A 2 week journey to experience Kenya and Ethiopia. Sunday, December 2, 2007. Safari Pictures. Finally! You can see all the photos I was able to upload (I shot more than 450 pictures! In the slideshow. I want to eventually give some more context to these photos, but the connection here is so slow, I'm getting frustrated. I'm lucky I was able to upload these! Posted by Marc Sirkin.

Marc's African Adventure: Homeward Bound

http://marcsafricanadventure.blogspot.com/2007/12/homeward-bound.html

A 2 week journey to experience Kenya and Ethiopia. Friday, December 7, 2007. Sitting here at Nairobi airport, I can't believe the trip I'd over. We have 8 hours to Amsterdam and another 8 to JFK. What a trip - more thoughts and pics to come over the next few days/weeks. Boarding in a few, can't wait to finally watch Children of Men on my MP3 player (been saving that for the return trip).

Marc's African Adventure: Special Fool

http://marcsafricanadventure.blogspot.com/2007/12/special-fool.html

A 2 week journey to experience Kenya and Ethiopia. Thursday, December 6, 2007. Anyone who is reading this blog that knows me (espcially my wife and girls), knows that I'm a big eater. Big. Really big. There is very little that I don't like to eat. The trip to Africa so far has been good for my taste buds, amazing steaks on the safari and amazing Indian food in Nairobi. The next morning we were treated to an amazing breakfast at a roadside restaurant. The dish, "Special Fool" (so apropos it's silly eh?

Marc's African Adventure: Special thanks

http://marcsafricanadventure.blogspot.com/2007/12/special-thanks.html

A 2 week journey to experience Kenya and Ethiopia. Sunday, December 2, 2007. Special blog-style shout out to the IRC Kenya country and regional staff! I hope we haven't been a burden, our schedule alone is enough to make your head spin. Thanks to Kellie and Nenad in particular for spending insane amounts of time with us and helping us really understand what it is that the IRC does here in Kenya. To really know the IRC, you have to know the people. Posted by Marc Sirkin. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Marc's African Adventure: December 2007

http://marcsafricanadventure.blogspot.com/2007_12_01_archive.html

A 2 week journey to experience Kenya and Ethiopia. Saturday, December 15, 2007. My daughter pointed out that I had been back for a week already (and what a week! It's amazing to think that so much is happening around the world that you don't see if you aren't looking. That said, what struck me as I reflect back is an image of how western thinking and modern technology (i.e. Progress! Is slamming at warp speed into a continent and people who have no framework to understand what is happening. We landed in ...

Marc's African Adventure: Hirna High School

http://marcsafricanadventure.blogspot.com/2007/12/hirna-high-school.html

A 2 week journey to experience Kenya and Ethiopia. Wednesday, December 5, 2007. AIDS education is a big deal in these parts. I saw many road signs and billboards talking about HIV/AIDS. Most of the messages were focused on having only one partner, but there is a condom company doing a lot of outdoor advertising as well. I spotted this sign on our visit to Hirna High School.

Marc's African Adventure: November 2007

http://marcsafricanadventure.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html

A 2 week journey to experience Kenya and Ethiopia. Friday, November 30, 2007. Morning on the mara. It couldn't be more beautiful here. We just saw 3 lionesses with their babies. The noises they were making were so cute. Earlier, we saw a warthog and David I were hoping it was Pumbaa. No luck. Last night was loud - something (or someone) was howling at thew moon. This is a radical departure from mu experience this past week and much needed. Posted by Marc Sirkin. What a way to start a safari. I'm sitting ...
