Is it true that you're going on a camera safari in East Africa?

Yes, it is. I travel to Africa frequently.

I didn't know that. Do your trips require a lot of preparation prior to departure?

Oh, yes, but it's well worth it.

Where will you be staying?

I'll stay a few days in Nairobi, then I'll set off for the Northern Frontier District. Eventually, I'll make
my way to Southwestern Kenya and Mount Kilimanjaro.

It sounds exciting. What will the weather be like?

For the most part it should be balmy, as I'm going at the end of the rainy season. However, conditions
will often depend upon where I am at the time.

You mean it'll be different from one place to another?

Oh, yes. For example, the savannas, or plains, will be arid and the heat absolutely scorching on some
days, while on Kilimanjaro it will be quite chilly. Meanwhile, on the coast at Malindi the weather will
be sultry and the air humid.

Tell me about the animals.

They're magnificent. In the Rift Valley, as far as the eye can see, the land is flat, the grass parched,
there are immense herds of animals - zebras, giraffes, and gazelles. At night, one can hear the hyenas
and the occasional roar of a lion.

It sounds wonderful and I hope I get to go to Africa someday!

Well, if you really want to, then eventually you will. I'm sure of it.
