Thanks Jaya, Lyn & Cindy, it's warming to hear your encouragment and is much appreciated.
I think I'll try and do a 2 week trip and am looking at doing (as an alternative), the Watumu -Kenya-All inclusive 2 week trip and then I can take a 2 night Safari excursion as an add on from there. That trip leaves on the 7th September which is better for me work-wise. Has anyone else had experience of doing Kenya/Safari that way before?
Hope you have a great time Lyn, from what I'm reading we have nothing to worry about, just look forward to the excitement!!!
