It's always a good day when Blossom decides to visit.

He said he'd heard about the newly renovated bar area at Governors Camp and he was just making sure that it doesn't interfere with his love of wandering through to say Jambo.

Thank you Condé Nast Traveler. A lifetime ago I was invited to join the most extraordinary group of travel specialists in the world. Never has any year meant as much as this one. There's still a thrill to open the email....and the tremendous honor to know so many of you. I will forever be grateful. This list changed my life in a minute, continues to make me excited about what I do, and has made a difference to my team on the ground in East Africa. For those of you I've known so long, I'd go anywhere with you.

There's an App! Cicada Safari.
