We had a big storm last evening but it didn't reach the Camp. One of the drivers said half way between Aruba and here the rain stopped. But Aruba and towards Voi they got a lot.

Elephants don't have any Problem anymore (grass is growing)

We had lots of Cattle around the Camp last week and I told the Chief. Then they came in big busses and lorry's and got them all out. Two days later we found one around the waterhole which they forgot. So I send the little guy (askari) out to fetch it. Then I call the Chief again and tell him about and he said, "eat the bloody thing".

Jan is getting into trouble with the local chief... take care.
Looks like beef is on the menu then tonight on youride of the globe!
I am sure you are happy to see green grass....
Have a good time Jan -
I have Lord Kipper in for dinner tonight - getting the Vino out of the cellar; we shall toast to you in the African bush!

Sorry folks, guess I didn't make myself clear with the 'News from Tsavo" title.

This was a note from my favorite camp. I am not there now (wish I were though!)

Jan - Great to hear the grass is growing again in Tsavo and that the elephants (and snakes)
are happy. Any news about rain in Amboseli? From what I can tell...it's still dry with just a sprinkle or two.

Kat - That is what I've heard also. Joyce Poole is there now and her post on Facebook indicates a desperate situation for wildlife. Can only hope there will be rain soom.
