Exploring the wild animals in Africa.
The first exploring of East Africa was made by the Arab, Indian and Persian traders, who ventured into the continent during the 13 the century. The Swahili ( KiSwahili ) language, was at that time developed by these traders. Originally it started with a traditional Bantu language that was influenced by and mixed with the Persian, Arab, Turkish and Hindu languages. Safari is one of the Swahili words that were used by these traders. Safari means journey in English. Safari stands for more than a journey today. The British explorer did indeed spice up the journey with the adventure, the wild and untouched, the passion for hunting and a decadent lifestyle.
Moreover, the first safari exploring expeditions that people in general, consider too be the modern version of safari, started in 1836. It was Mr. Cornwallis Harries who led an expedition into the untouched Southern Africa. He had previously served as a British Officer in the colonized India. Mr Cornwallis Harries adopted from India the comfortable elements of an English romantic living style. Traditions of “Early morning tea” before breakfast, “the four o’clock tea” in the afternoon, followed by the formal dressing and the formal dinner, using fine porcelain and silverware, set on a table covered with white linen. This trip was undertaken for the sheer enjoyment of observing the wildlife and the impressive landscape. During his expedition he also set a daily routine in place that still endures; starting a new day at sunrise, continued with a vigorous and dusty hot day out in the African scenery, away from the comfort of the tented campsite. Back at the camp the formal part of the day started with formal dressing and a lavish evening meal, followed by a cigar and a brandy, or two.
Other explorer were Lord Randolph Churchill ( 1892 ), father of late Prime Minister Winston Churchill. He set out on a horseback safari across Zimbabwe, with extra travel requirements. His entourage included four cooks, a surgeon, and a train of wagons loaded with "essentials" such as cases of gin and crates of vintages wine and champagne. He also carried a piano out in the bush for the entertainment.
Theodore Roosevelt former President of US, embarked on a safari across Kenya in 1909. He was passionate about the wildlife and the big game hunting. Besides the big game hunting Roosevelt did also collect specimens for the Smithsonian Institute.
