Things I Love, U.S. Travel, Wining/Dining

I absolutely love visiting Chicago. It is a world-class city with great people, shopping, culture, baseball (none for us this trip) and fabulous food.

Down on the farm in … Tanzania?? That would specifically be Gibbs Farm, ideally located in the green and fertile hills near the Ngorongoro Crater. It’s difficult to convey the sheer beauty in that part of the country. And it was a complete departure from our time spent in the Serengeti (see previous posts). The […]

International Travel, Things I Love

Many recent travel articles report that animal sightings are greater since the pandemic kept many tourists from African travel. We’re here to confirm that is true in a significant way at our first stop after the overnight in Arusha (see previous post). Whether it’s lack of human presence or the area in general or the […]
