Hello Subscriber We are sending you this mail to remind you of our special "Southbound Kenya Discover Safari" tour. This 6-day safari will take you to two of the world's hot spots for the African Elephant- Amboseli National Park and Maasai Mara Game Reserve in Kenya. As a bonus, you also visit Tsavo -an outstanding elephant sanctuary in its own right. You start off with Maasai Mara, Kenya's most famous and finest game sanctuary. The Mara offers wildlife in such variety and abundance that it is difficult to believe: over 450 species of animals have been recorded here. Then to Amboseli, which sits on the lower slopes of mighty Mount Kilimanjaro - Africa's highest. The animal pictures arising against the dramatic backdrop of the mountain will thrill the photography enthusiast. You end up at Tsavo West, where you see elephants, crocodiles, vervet monkeys, antelope, baboons, giraffes, hippos and lions. The park is a marvel in terms of geo-physical character and plant diversity Visit this page for more information:- http://africapoint.com/tours1/vacation.asp?vacationid=4 Flying Tips:- ============= If you are intending on flying soon then try the following "aero-therapy" tips below and help yourself to some in-flight comfort. 1.
