		<description><![CDATA[My sister and I paid a visit to the elephant orphanage in Nairobi, Kenya. I guess it&#8217;s technically the &#8220;David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust,&#8221; but most people generally just call it the &#8220;elephant orphanage.&#8221; I had been to the nearby Nairobi Safari Walk before, which also has an orphanage, but this is a whole new ball [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[No, scorpions are not furry. Neither are snakes. I guess some spiders are, but now I&#8217;m bringing back too many memories from Tala. I don&#8217;t think those wild animals will be bugging me any more now that I&#8217;ve moved to Nairobi. Instead, I have two wildly energetic dogs constantly disturbing me, Peanut and Mascha. Peanut&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This goat is the king of Tala&#8217;s market (or at least he walks around like he owns the place). I&#8217;m not sure how old it is, but I&#8217;ve been seeing him for nearly two years now. That means it has lasted through at least two Christmas and two Easter feasts. A colleague of mine swears [...]]]></description>

Well the rains have been scarce, but I think that post served as an invitation of sorts, because I&#8217;ve had some creepy crawlies. I saw this guy a [...]]]></description>

I have a roof made of aluminum and these stupid birds love to party up there. They are neither beautiful to look at [...]]]></description>

As far as I can tell, this has two major ramifications: Farmers will grow food this season (rains were sporadic last season) Lots of animals will crawl into my house Let it be known: I come in peace, but if you scare the shit out of me [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[By now most of you know that I run a small animal shelter out of my house here in Kenya (I guess I am following in my friend Marg&#8217;s footsteps). I made a fun little discovery in my house last night. &#8220;Fun&#8221; being that it was a scorpion. &#8220;Little&#8221; being that it was hardly an [...]]]></description>

When I saw it a few nights ago it was high above my door in some little crevice in the bricks of my [...]]]></description>

As you may recall, this isn&#8217;t the first time I&#8217;ve had such an encounter&#8230; As I [...]]]></description>
