Nairobi

Since I have a minute I decided to write another post. After my incredible experience in Thailand I decided to go to Nairobi, Kenya. Sadly I lost to Chris Paul 21-19 it was very upsetting, but he still gave me season tickets, SCOOOOOORE! Anyways I’m having a super awesome time in Nairobi. It has always been a childhood dream of mine to go to Africa. I’ve always, and I mean always have wanted to go on a safari, and yesterday I got to do that. The safari was located at about 1 degree south, and 36 degrees east. It was so incredible seeing lions, cheetahs, elephants, and all sorts of other animals in

their natural habitats. Usually you just see them in the zoo, but to see them in the wild is far more fascinating. Africa is just such a beautiful place, and I’m puzzled why I haven’t decided to come here before.

One reason I specifically went to Kenya is because it is in East Africa. Now your pro

bably thinking what’s so fantabulous about East Africa? What’s cool about East Africa is that it’s a divergent boundary. This means ever so slowly East Africa is being pulled away from the rest of Africa. So over a lot of time East Africa will no longer be apart of mainland Africa. This also means that some oceans are getting bigger, while others are getting smaller. I

would have to say divergent boundaries are by far my favorite type of tectonic boundaries. Maybe not to you, but to me they are incredibly fascinating.
