\"\"<\/a>Linda Lou Burton posting from Sweetwaters Serena Camp, Ol Pejeta Conservancy, Nanyuki, Kenya \u2013 <\/em>Here\u2019s the second reason I went to Africa. First Karen Blixen\u2019s house. Now, the EQUATOR. I\u2019ve been to the Arctic and the Antarctic, now I was smack dab in the middle, the fattest part of EARTH. Hot dog!<\/p>\n

I wasn\u2019t the only person there who was acting like a nut. We\u2019d been sitting in the 4x4s since early morning and this was our last stop before lunch. We were running around like fools. \u201cGet it on record! We\u2019re at the Equator!\u201d<\/p>\n

I mean, this is serious stuff. That big tall sign was bragging too, with a bunch of \u201cget this\u201d facts about THE EQUATOR.<\/p>\n
