The best part of safari isn’t the gym. It’s not the WiFi, the charging stations, the dojo or any other new-fangled convenience . The best part of safari is far more ancient and basic.

This is Badfoot. We always recognize his bad limp when we see him in person but also his tracks that show his distinct injured foot . He is one of 2 bosses of our local pride and he sustained his injuries to his foot long ago. We even suspect that one of his eyes is non functional. Despite his war wounds, he is actually a quite polite lion. We run into him regularly on Gamedrives and on foot. He usually makes a grunting growl and pushes on away from us when we’re walking but poses nicely like a Mara lion with vehicles.

Where it all Began

Kerry and Jamie started going on safari together as kids in the 70’s. Their parents were all good friends and their mothers, Julia and Anthea grew up close to one another near Ol Kalau. The girls rode their horses to visit one another or were captains their field hockey teams. They remain good friends and neighbors to this day, still sharing their love of horses and now a couple of grandkids.

Kerry’s father Rob Glen is a renowned wildlife sculptor and was a critical ingredient in the family safaris. It was Rob who specialized in getting the Rhino’s to charge or the lions to chase the sisal rope dragged behind the land-cruiser.

Mike Christian, Jamie’s father, came from the USA to Kenya to work for the Kenyatta government after independence. It was there that he quickly became friends with Julie and Rob, and his wife-to-be, Anthea.

Kerry attended Capetown University, studying Environmental Science, while Jamie went to the University of Vermont to study Wildlife Biology. In 2003, Kerry was working in London for a Safari Agent and Jamie was working as a Biological Research Assistant.
