Kristina's African Safaris: September 2010
http://kristinasafari.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Saturday, September 4, 2010. I’m just back from Stockholm, which was a quick visit with family and friends. I enjoyed my birth city very much. However the return flight was something else. I flew Delta Airlines from Seattle via JFK to Stockholm, since SAS pulled out of here last summer. Couldn’t be easier. Right? Going home was another matter though. I got a voucher for 85 kronor to eat lunch. How very generous of them! About $100 lighter, I walked away with a double-tall wet-capp. Hmmmm … good! We got a...

Kristina's African Safaris: Back from Tanzania and Zanzibar
http://kristinasafari.blogspot.com/2011/04/back-from-tanzania-and-zanzibar.html
Wednesday, April 27, 2011. Back from Tanzania and Zanzibar. I'm just back from East Africa with this happy greeting from the Giraffe Manor in Nairobi, which is not on Tanzania, but in Kenya. Having your breakfast with the giraffes can take several hours. Travel Agents on a working safari! This crescent shape dune travels 17 meters a year around this area and has done so for 3 million years, at least. The sand is magnetic and always comes back to itself even when the wind blows it away from the dune&#...

Kristina's African Safaris: Wonky Tusk did walk through the lobby at Mfuwe Lodge!

Friday, January 21, 2011. Wonky Tusk did walk through the lobby at Mfuwe Lodge! Wonky Tusk did walk through the lobby at Mfuwe Lodge! We were so fortunate to see Wonky Tusk and little Wellington. She comes any time, night or day, so can be difficult to catch. We missed her 3 times before we caught her one morning at 6 am! The wild mangoes kept her there for 18 minutes. Then she marched her family through the lobby and disappeared into the bush. One of my favorite photograph is this one of a Carmine Bee-e...

Saturday, April 10, 2010. Fire and Ice, Volcanic Eruptions, Waterfalls and Rainbows, Evil Lava and Delicate Moss. We're back from Iceland and what an experience it was. Iceland is a land of contrasts: Fire and Ice, Waterfalls and Rainbows, Evil Lava and Delicate Moss, Violent Eruptions and Jagged Lava Flows, Smooth Glaciers and Deep Crevasses, Gentle Rivers and Big Rapids, Fissures and Lagoons opening up inside your house, Mid-Atlantic Rift, NO TREES! Here are some of the highlights:. Links to this post.
