Crescent Island

November 25, 2016 /

While we were in Kenya to take Jonah to RVA– we had a free day while he was in school -before we headed back home.  We decided to use our day by driving down the hill about an hour to a place called Crescent Island (fact: not an island) close to Naivasha.

dsc05478The animals were apparently brought here for the filming of 1980’s Academy Award winning film: Out of Africa (fun fact: Susan and I just watched it for the first time when we were in France this summer. Wow. Apparently really long, depressing movies were the thing 30 years ago)

just verifying the fact that – yes, a hippo would chomp off your upper body with one bite

There is not much to say about this place – but merely see. So here are some pictures of what we experienced there:dsc05483
