Due to a health problem one of my October 2006 participants cannot come on the trip. There will be 10 photographers on this trip. It costs 2850. USD for the first 2 weeks and then there is a mombasa extension for 1250.usd. Trip date starts october 1 2006. If interested please let me know ASAP as time is short.

There are 4 dpcers going already, so hey come on and meet and greet in Kenya!

Also if anyone is interested in uganda, kenya and tanzania for October 2007 let me know as planning for that trip is well underway! (I can tell you the costs for 2006 are less due to inflation/gas and that it is one country vs. 2 or 3)

Come on, folks! This is going to be a blast. If you have any doubts about the types of photos you could end up with, just look at Lynn's portfolio.

I'm so excited. I can't wait for the next 5 or 6 weeks to FLY by...

my wife did the Africa Trip before I met her. She has a whole box of awesome pictures that she took of all the animals in their natural hab. Some Day !!! maybe even next year, Have to blow some smoke at the wife and see what she thinks. She has mentioned several times that she would love to take me to see everything she has seen.

Me too. Just getting all my ducks in a row as far as shots, equipment etc. Just have to do more weight lifting so the 100-400 feels as light as a feather.

I'm in panic mode since I'm flying to Nairobi via Heathrow and the carry-on restrictions mean I might have to check-in some of my gear...Arrrghhhh. Trying to get a regulation size carry-on that will fit my 1D II, 16-35, 24-70, 70-200 and 500...

It is going to be great, I am a bit worried about camera gear and checking on too, but I am hoping by then things will settle down a bit, I will also be checking with agents familiar with london closer to the time.

I'm in the same boat, flying through Heathrow. Try one of the Pelican or Lowepro Stealth bags. They might be the right size and fit all your gear. (or leave something at home ;o) j/k)

you could leave that 500 with me Nick : )

I'm headed for China October 3rd so this year is out. I would be interested in being kept up to date on the 2007 trip though.

I agree... I'm not looking forward to this either, but I hope as Lynn does that things loosen up a bit in the next month...
