    Dave and Tracy I think you should start your own Safari where by when a person wants to go for a Safari somewhere they book with you😊." DAVE MANI SAFARIS"

      Their parents can have a safari agency in Canada for those Canadians who would want to travel to Kenya and book their travel through the agency and Dave and tracy can be their tour guide in Kenya. The agency can offer options like safari only, safari and beach, just offer different options of places and types of accomdations. Like a custom fit safari. What do you like. Beach holiday, safari and beach. Also pocket sizes. luxury, pocket friendly etc

    I believe that open patch of land is a helipad, & that's why the bench is set that far back. Hence the "H" shape on the ground you captured on your video @ 6:48

    It's still amazing to me that as kids in the 80s and 90 as we're millions of others we drove past these places without stopping or exploring because we were going somewhere away or towards Nairobi. Brings to mind that the journey should never be all about the destination but about the journey itself. These guys are doing God's work by taking most people watching on the journey's we should have enjoyed all those years ago.

    Near perfect pronunciation of Elemen-tai-ta 👌
    The greenish look of the lake is as a result of algae/plankton growth which flamingos feed on. This only occurs in alkaline lakes of Elementaita,Nakuru and Bogoria. In Lakes Natron and Magadi,the algae turns pinkish-red due to the high water salinity.
    The armchair stoppers if I may call them that,are a relic of the classic era of safaris which colonial hunters/settlers/adventurers used to relax and literally hang-up their legs or boots if you like.
    The massive greyish hill forming the lake's backdrop is called the "Sleeping Warrior"
    Lastly Dave,you are the greatest Eubi ambassador anywhere in Africa! You make their presence prominently felt here and I think Melbourne/Los Angeles/Nairobi should be their next tag! 😄

    Those chairs on the balcony ... we call them 'Karen Blixen chairs". Safari chairs would probably be more correct.

      I can't think of any coastal people sitting in those chairs, waiting for someone to take off their boots :-)
      Not even a while back.
      They are probably originally from India back in British colonial time.
      And they are for "masters". Not the average kuli.
      I think they are called something like "planters chair".
