On The Trail Sun Gloves from REI Co-op, Item #168626 $28.95. They are found under mens accessories but they are listed as unisex sun gloves. I bought size XTRA SMALL. They come in 3 colors, I like the ones that look like camo (Sonora Dream Celery). Hopefully they won’t look as dirty or show the dirt on safari as much as my other ones. We didn’t have as much sun on my recent safari in Tanzania but I’m sure in the Mara these will come in handy!

SOREL® Women's Out N About™ Plus waterproof casual boots. These boots really do keep your feet dry. I went through multiple puddles on a recent walk through the rain and was impresed at how dry my feet stayed. Plus, I really like the camo detail :) . Lots of folks have asked me where I got these short casual boots. I got them at Dick’s Sporting Goods. I looked them up online and they are on sale for $99.00.

This double knitted 100% wool hat is soft and fits perfectly. I wore it in Japan and was asked everyday if I would be willing to trade it. No way! I love this hat. besides, who could resist that cute fox! Comes in 9 colors, Priced at $35.00 by Fjallraven. I bought mine at REI but I have included the link to the company since REI is sold out of them.
Garmin Fenix 5s Plus
GPS Smartwatch
I paid $488.88 from the Take a Hike Shop.com for the version 5 plus. Garmin makes a version 6 but I found that the version 5 plus had all the bells and whistles I needed plus I did’t like the gold trim or the price of the new version. There are too many features to list but one of the best things about this watch is that I can store up to 1000 songs on it and the charge lasts for about 7 days. I had an Apple watch but it was a pain to charge it every single day, especially when travelling, I gave it to my daughter.
As many of you know I took my Heat Company gloves to Japan. I really liked the way they kept my finger tips warm. One of the best things about this glove system were the Polartec liner gloves. They were extremely comfortable and are my new favorite all around glove. The liners have a pocket for heat warmers, they are stretchy, not too bulky and warm. Yes, I will use the shell when needed but the liners are a must! Shown above are the Heat Company gloves I am using. Size 8.

Kindle Fire
I use the Scribd APP on my iPhone and iPad to listen to or read a variety of books at my finger tips. They have a free 30 day trial and afterwards it is $9.99 month. What I like about it is that I have not needed to download anything, I choose the book I want, tap on it so that it is loaded and I can continue to read the book (even when off line—most of the time) and it knows just where I left off.
Based on a True story
Starring Mark Ruffalo, Ann Hathaway
and Tim Robbins
Inspired by a true story, a tenacious attorney played by Mark Ruffalo uncovers years of lies and deception and a secret that links a growing number of unexplained deaths due to one of the world's largest corporations (DuPont). In the process, he risks everything -- his future, his family, and his own life -- to expose the truth. I wouldn’t say it is a gripping movie or a contender for an Oscar but it is a story that needs to be told, it needs viewed and it needs to be shared…
