Loisaba Conservancy, Kenya [Sunday evening]

[heroic_jawline]

After several portal layovers--still faster than flying from Maryland to Kenya--the group arrived at Loisaba Conservancy.

With more chaperones than students. Anakin saw you, mooching grown ups. He saw you.

"Welcome to Loisaba," Anakin said, gesturing around at allllll of the land. "Our group is going to be located in 11 different suites away from this, the main lodge. You will be in groups of four, and one group of chaperones in a group of three. This lodge holds the spa, the pool, and an area for large group gatherings. You can also order breakfast, lunch, and dinner to your suites--there's a table that will seat just the three or four of you. Each suite has been assigned a NPC, moddable guide. He will be your guide through the bus and will also be there to bring food and answer questions. I trust none of you will take advantage of this."

He coughed. "Just as reminder, this is 57,000 acres of wild land. The animals take primacy here and while they generally don't get too close to where the people are, that's not universally true. Watch out for snakes. And lions. There's a lot of paperwork for me to fill out if one of you dies on a trip."

On that reassuring note, he moved out of the way to let the lodge workers serve fruit juices and pass out keys.

Welcome to Kenya, everyone. Don't get eaten!

When you sleep under the stars, the day starts very early. Bonus: the Maasai Warriors taking care of everyone have arrived with coffee and tea for the suites to drink as you watch the sun rise. The second bonus: sunrise is the very best time to go on a game drive where the giraffes are, and the zebra and see all of the animals!
