SAMBURU NATIONAL RESERVE

October 8 - 9
Samburu

As we traveled to Samburu we crossed the equator again.

Here the people gave a demonstration of the 

water swirling clock-wise and counter clock-wise.

Susanne, Brynna, Sister Moon, Elder Moon, Rett

 

In the Northern Hemisphere the draining water swirls clock-wise

 

You need to be about 20 feet on either side of the Equator 

to be able to see the swirling as it drains.

In the Southern Hemisphere is swirls counter clock-wise.

Right on the Equator it drains straight and do what you might

it will NOT swirl either way.

Now to the Animals and the rest of our ADVENTURE!

AFRICAN ELEPHANT

In Samburu we stayed in a place called

ELEPHANT BEDROOM 

and we slept in a tent and the dining/lounge area was also

a tent. Isn't it rather luxurious for a TENT?!

Our bedroom and the bathroom is through the door by Elder Moon.
