Arriving from the lower Nile valley north of Lake Turkana in northern Kenya and central Tanzania between the 17th and late 18th centuries; the Maasai -- often misspelled Masai -- territory achieved its largest size during the mid-19th century, covering virtually all of the Great Rift Valley and neighboring Mt Marsabit in the north and as far south as Dodoma. Although today you will find; Maasai moved as far south as the town of Iringa and sometimes beyond. The Maasai, a Nilotic ethnic group of semi-nomadic origins, are among some of the best known tribes in Africa. The tribe consists of twelve geographic sectors, each with its own leadership, dialects, customs and appearance, a characteristic still being followed today. Their distinctive dress, with red as a favorite color; Maasai are often known as bright and colorful ornamented warriors. The main article of clothing being a wrap; women's wraps are called kanga, where men's wraps are called kikoi.

Barbecue And Campfire [02:50]
Chicken barbecue and campfire in Yei TS, South Sudan. We won't let something as insignificant as torrential rain stop us from having a good time! Didn't stop the cats from hovering around either, hoping for a tasty treat.

South Africa:Day Three- Shakaland [04:50]
WARNING. Russell may use naughty words. NOTE: The reason we were so excited about the house we were staying in, especially the toilet,, was because our previous living spaces in Sugar Bay were...questionable to say the least. This hut was luxury, as you can undoubtedly see. After a brief stay in the wonderful Sugar bay ( Which I did not film, unfortunately due to battery restrictions :( ) we headed off to Shakaland, a 'traditional' Zulu village and themed hotel. It was very interesting, so much so i actually managed to keep my mouth shut most of the time. Both Shakaland and Sugar Bay were great fun, and it is perhaps my largest regret of the trip that I did not film the latter, as it really was fantastic.
