Memorable Automobiles from The Past:
Today:
Sherry & I enjoy
traveling. One of her ‘least’ favorite modes of transport is flying. She
tolerates it but it must be something she really wants to do, such as: See
Paris, Israel and Hawaii or to see her grandsons and family in Utah/Oregon.
We have toyed with a
trip to Ireland (still on the list), it seems to call to me for some reason.
LOL
Mt. Kilimanjaro has
always held a spot in my mind, just the enormity of it. It is the largest free standing
mountain in the world, in other words it is not part of a mountain chain. It
stands over 19000 ft. high, it is a dormant volcano or volcanoes. It is in Tanzania.
What brings this up
is a tour business called Zarris in Kenya. We have a crazy nephew ;-), Rickie Harris,
he is a retired Navy Chief and like myself served in another branch of service also,
I think they call the one he served in, the US Army. LOL He and his beautiful wife
own the Zarris Tour service, operating in Kenya.
They offer overnight
trips to Amboseli National Park. It is said the best views of Mt. Kilimanjaro
are from that Nat’l Park. The animals are a plus of course.
I will borrow some of the
following pictures from from Chief Rick:
But as for Nephew Rickie? He has/is working in many countries. While he is off contracting out his knowledge, His wife runs the business in Kenya.
Probably a good thing. ;-)
PS: Do you have a problem with any specific mode of travel?

I like all modes of travel and am looking forward to my next trip to Florida, hopefully next winter I'll be able to go south. I missed seeing my son and his family this year.I don't think I'd like an African tour, but something a little closer to home.
I'll travel any way except don't like heights so don't like planes. I found out I was a wee bit claustrophobic while flying to FL. My favorite mode of travel is our UTV traveling thru our trails by the cabin. I feel so much in my peaceful mode then. I've wondered if a train ride out west would suit me...and my guy, of course. He likes flying.
loven'hugs from our northern cool air....it is warming a bit more by the day
To the best of my knowledge -- my intentions, anyway -- I'll never have to set foot onto another airplane. Whew! While I never had any upsetting flights, I've always been a fearful flyer. You're the second blogger to give me an idea for an upcoming post: When we flew to Greece, I was the only one to deplane feeling refreshed: I'd taken a 'micky' at JFK and slept the whole way.
Those giraffes are pretty cool, but I'd much prefer to see Ireland than Kenya. Do ships go there? LOL.
You were born a traveling man!
Ireland, Rick. You and Sherry must head there!
OMG....OMG! am u ion the page for that darlin' child rockin to "Good Golly Ms Molly" or am I lost in space???
