Fred,
I`d agree with Hans Georg on Samburu, next time we go to Kenya Samburu
would be on my list. I know that Hans Georg is not a "coast man"
unlike my husband, he said one day "when you`ve seen one elephant
you`ve seen them all!" Lamu is Hans Georg`s coastal exception. I love
wild life and would never tire of seeing elephants by the way. I thought
Zanzibar was a great experience and something different. I mentioned
Hemingways as we`ve stayed there more than once and the service is
excellent and would be a good honeymoon choice for a few days. If you
have the time you could combine the two if you want to.
Pat
