East Africa at Last! A photographic wildlife presentation
John Belbin

In 1957, at the age of 16, John began his career in London, England. His fi=
rst job was as a cartographer working on maps of then British Colonies and =
Territories as they prepared for independence. Most of that time was spent =
on mapping places in Africa that he desperately wanted to see. He even help=
ed train people from most of those places. Until this Christmas he had stil=
l never been to any of them. This is a photographic record of the first sta=
ge of an extensive =93Road Scholar=94 educational exploration trip that too=
k him from Nairobi, Kenya through Zanzibar and several beautiful islands in=
 the Indian Ocean to Sri Lanka. This presentation will concentrate on Kenya=
 as it was at the top of his =93Bucket List=94 and he had wanted to take a =
wildlife safari since he was in grammar school. He was very fortunate to ha=
ve some of the best guides in Africa with him for all of the Kenyan field t=
rips. Wildlife close-ups will be shown from parks in the Nairobi area and f=
rom his safari to the Maasai Mara. That is the Kenyan portion of the Sereng=
eti and one of the most significant animal refuges in the world.

John is a retired cartographic educator who spent 23 years at the College o=
f Geographic Sciences campus in Lawrencetown Nova Scotia as Cartography Ins=
tructor, Department Head and Student Services Officer.
