Taking Our Family On An EPIC ADVENTURE In Tsavo

We finally took Tracey`s family on their first ever Safari! After arriving in Kenya a week ago and visiting Nairobi, it was time to jump on the SGR down to the Tsavo region for a once in a life time adventure. It was also our first time taking kids on safari which was also a very different and new experience.
A big thank you to Lion's Bluff by Soroi Collection in Lumo Conservancy for helping us creating lifelong memories for the entire family. This safari camp has been one of our favorite in Kenya for many years now.
soroi.com/tsavo/lions-bluff-l...
Tracey's parents, sister, brother-in-law and our niece and two nephews were able to truly experience what they have seen dozens of times in all our safari vlogs. From waking up at sunrise, having elephants walking around the safari vehicle, staying in luxury accommodations with a breathtaking view in addition to 5 star dining, this safari trip couldn't have been better.
We even had the chance to visit a school which is partially sponsored by the safari lodge. If you'd like to help out, click here. community-wildlife.org/

Pursuing one's own incredible dream despite second guesses from others not to mention those closest and then to realize that dream in spite of dire obstacles is one of the epitomes of human success. To then bring loved ones to celebrate that joy of success that they have been witnessing and congratulating you from afar is true manifestation. Dave, and Tracy, you have given a timeless legacy to both sides of your families, that they will cherish forever. I can already see those lovely kidos bringing their own families in the future - to an incredible place they were once brought by Uncle Dave and Auntie Tracy 😄. Congratulations!!
