Hello, there! I’m going to Africa soon! Let me describe my “African safari”
checklist to you.
My checklist includes five important aspects. The first, and most important
one, is Vaccination and immunization. The Kenyan Government says I can’t
enter the country without proof that I got a vaccine against the yellow fever. I
also need to check that I have all the common vaccines (the ones you
usually get as a child). For that reason, I have to visit the doctor to check my
record and plan a vaccination schedule (in case I need it) at least three
months before my departure.
The second point on my list is the arrival. The hotel is not close to the airport
so I need to arrange a meet-and-greet service. The people from the hotel
can pick me up at The Jomo Kenyatta International Airport in Nairobi. I have
to speak with them soon to let them know about my time of arrival and flight
number.
In addition, I need to make sure I have the appropriate clothing for Africa.
Kenya is a tropical country so days are hot and there is a lot of humidity. For
that reason, I need to buy several T-shirts and shorts for the hot weather.
There are quite a lot of mosquitos in Kenya too. I need to get a mosquito net
and an insect repellent to take with me at all times.
The fourth point on my list is money. The official currency in Kenya is the
Kenya Shilling. Although there are several ATMs in the country now, I need
to make sure I have enough cash with me in case I don’t find one. To
exchange money, it is good to have dollars or euros so I need to buy some
before my trip. I can pay for the hotel and buy souvenirs with a credit card so
I have to call my bank to authorize the use of my credits cards in Kenya. An
extra task is to find out about the Shilling: its coin and bill denominations and
to familiarize with them.
Finally, there is one important thing to consider. That is the contact with
animals during the Safari. I cannot interfere with their natural behavior. It can
be very dangerous. Also, I have to consult my guide before getting out of the
vehicles. There are usually lots of wild animals around and it is better to
prevent attacks.
That’s all friends. See you in Africa!
Mary

My vacations
My name is Juan Jose Ramirez and this is my family. In this picture we were at
the beach in San Andres, where the weather was always very warm and sunny,
and we had lots of fun, so I cannot complain. In this picture All my family were
smile.
We took off their shoes in the beach because you were felt the sand on your
feet and it was very relaxing. I was wearing a black shorts and a red t-shirt, and
a sunglass. The woman is my mom, the girl is my sister and the men with wear
blue t-shirt is my dad.
My favorite vacation was in 2019. I went to San Andres. I traveled by plane. It
was a good flight. We stayed in a hotel where we were treated really well and
started to enjoy. I spent some days in an exotic beach Johnny Cay near San
Andres. I went to many places in Johnny Cay. Many tourists visited Johnny
Cay, and they knew and saw the island, and the seven colors than have the
sea.
I played with my little sister in the sand and in the sea. We made many sand
castles with the help of my mom and my dad and we even made a competition
which one was better. And finally my sister won the competition.
We met nice people of the island, and we bought and ate delicious sea food in
the restaurants of the island. I wanted to eat a shrimp cocktail and I loved it.
We ate a lot of fish and seafood, the seafood was delicious but something that I
didn´t like was coconut milk, it wasn´t tasty, my sister said that it is amazing and
delicious but I didn´t like it.
It was fantastic. I practiced scuba diving, I swam in the ocean with my sister and
my mom, my dad has fear with doing this and don’t doing this amazing
experience. The hottest days we went into the sea and we swam to get tired, of
course I did it carefully.
This vacation I share with my family and have amazing time with they. It was a
perfect beach day. With my dad went shopping in a very large store. We bought
souvenirs, clothing, objects, ornaments and we became fully loaded with things
at the hotel. My vacation was fantastic because I rested a lot, I met new friends
and I knew beautiful places. Obviously, all this time we took pictures and i have
an amazing video under the sea. In conclusion I can say that I had a wonderful
time with my family, I enjoy the time and the moments that I spend in family
