Amboseli National Park is a national park in Kenya that spreads across the Kenya-Tanzania border. It has great views of Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest free-standing mountain in the world.
Almost 85 percent of the ice cover on Kilimanjaro disappeared between October 1912 and June 2011. At the current rate, most of the ice on Kilimanjaro will disappear by 2040. 😢
“The Snows of Kilimanjaro” is a short story by Ernest Hemingway.
Off to Switzerland tonight. The problem with a late evening flight is that I get a bit edgy, always watching the clock.
But it's a good set of flights with Emirates, both in Airbus A380s (great planes) and with three hours layover in Dubai. I prefer having three hours there rather than, say, two hours, as it takes a while to get through the airport.
One day I will decide I've had enough of these long flights to Europe and draw a line under them. But not quite yet.
Elephant mothers carry their babies for nearly two years before giving birth. Then they ensure their babies get the best food, teach their children the most useful skills and show their children how to lead the herd during hard times.
Elephants learn how to pick the best plants for eating, how to defend against predators and how to navigate steep embankments — all from their mothers.

As we drove slowly through the large empty spaces of the Maasai Mara National Reserve, I was fortunate enough to perceive a spot of slightly different color in a small group of bushes.
It was difficult to really see what it was, luckily a little bit of photography gear material can help!
The African fish eagle is a large species of eagle found throughout sub-Saharan Africa wherever large bodies of open water with an abundant food supply occur, like lake Nakuru.
The adult is very distinctive in appearance with a mostly brown body with a white head like the bald eagle and large, powerful, black wings. The head, breast, and tail of African fish eagles are snow white, with the exception of the featherless face, which is yellow.
I walk with a cane in airports and I'm contemplating getting new underseat spinner style luggage for our next trip so I can put my kid's backpack on it and not have my arm holding up as much weight and I was with my 2-wheeled one.
Before I get completely mired in review sites, anyone got luggage experience they'd be willing to share? I'd particularly love to hear from other travelers with mobility issues.
@terri I bought mine from Walmart (10 years ago) and Target (7 years ago). Nothing fancy but they both work great and sturdy. I have the hardshell spinner style.
It's been a dramatic few days for commercial aviation with passengers on three airlines suffering terrifying ordeals involving severe inflight turbulence. Nadine Itani, Programme Leader and Lecturer in Air Transport Management at the University of Surrey tells FRANCE24's Tom Burges Watson that for every 1% increase in average temperature there's an estimated 10% increase in the frequency of clear-air turbulence. #Travel#Aviation#Turbulence https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4tzKHTXcW4A
