My mother and other animals

Dear Africa,

I am very keen to go to Africa as my mother is from there and although I have her legs, I have never been there myself. My mother was born in Nakuru and grew up near the lake, befriending many animals, baboons and flamingos alike. One time, when she was a teenager, her glands swelled up and she was mistaken for one of the Big Five and nearly put in a zoo. Luckily she managed to zigzag her way back to the house and pretend to be a lamp post. My mother has some crazy stories like that I can tell you. Now she lives in Kent, England, and still has a very close relationship with the wildlife, such as butterflies and squirrels. She claims she can talk to them but butterflies are pompous and squirrels are racist so she doesn't bother most of the time. I would like to arrange a surprise trip back to Kenya for my mother so I need some info but on the sly. Is it possible to stay on the lake and does it cater for vegeterians?

Many thanks for your help,
Gerry
P.S When is a rhino not a rhino?
