Dick Voelker will show a 22 minute video from his travels to Kenya and Tanzania in July 2015.

The video consists of hundreds of photos, with titles and music, during his three week adventure to Africa. During the program you will see dozens of animals and birds including: Impalas, Cheetahs, Topi, Wildebeest, Hartebeest, Gazelles, Saddle-billed Stork, Cape buffalo, Leopards, Ostriches, Hyenas, Dik-Diks, Baboons, Elkands, White-billed Go-Away Bird, Gerenuk, Hydrox, Nile Monitor Lizards, Warthogs, and the usual assortment of lions, zebras, elephants, rhinoceros, hippopotamus, giraffes. 

 

Interestingly, Dick became the co-pilot on the flight aboard a small aircraft from Nairobi to Masa Mara; all of this without prior experience. The reason: he was the last one to board the aircraft and it was the only seat left on the flight.


Additionally, in the video, there are many photographs from hours spent with the Bush people in their camp and a visit to a Maasai school.

 

Other TVIH folks that have had the adventure of an Africa Safari are invited to show their photos and videos.


Please note that you do not need to have photographs to enjoy this event.

 

If you have questions or need amplifying information, please contact either Joy Cheung or Dick Voelker.
