DAY 1

Hello Graland!

I'm here!  After 25 hours of traveling, I arrived late in Narobi last night, and left my hotel this morning ready for adventure!  I had my ticket for a short trip out to LEWA where I am staying and working, on the smallest plane I have ever been on- a little Cessna plane with only 14 seats (including the pilot!).  Imagine a big van with wings... I was a little nervous but very excited to see Kenya from the sky.  As we flew out of Nairobi, buildings became more and more scarce...in many parts it looked like a living patchwork quilt of different greens and a few houses as we flew over farmland...
