2. Paco made the right decision
Paco is so happy with the experience! They have already made two visits to the park and seen a great variety of animals in their natural habitat. He made the right decision when he decided to come to Kenya. James, the guide, is doing his best with the group of tourists. He is very helpful during the tours and he makes an extra effort every night when they are at the camp and people want to hear more about Kenya.
The tented camp where Paco is staying is really good and comfortable. At night they all gather together and James tell them about this amazing country, its fauna and flora, and also about the cultural heritage of the different African tribes, including the Maasai people they are probably going to meet the following day. The other tourists in the group are really nice although he has not made any friends yet.
Paco has just made a phone call. He has been talking to his sister Sonia about the safari. While he is experiencing wildlife at its best, Sonia is doing her homework and Mum is doing the ironing and the washing up. How boring! Sonia has to make this journey one day. What a memorable experience!
