Sorry for my silence! I have been very busy, basically travelling between Mara and Nairobi (did 3 trips in one week!). I will be posting more entries next week, but I just wanted to share some photos I took with my new camera.

Hi Asuka! I have read all your posts and was redirected to your Japanese website, in which I saw you’ve written books, but in JAPANESE!! When will the English translation be published, I’d really like to read them since your life seems to be very very interesting.
Best,
Shelly R.

Beautiful male lion, and the Rangers look good with their beautiful smiles :>)

As promised, abeit a little late, is my $200.00 donation to go towards your autoclave.

Is the new camera going to take a photo of your new car??

Hi everyone! Thanks for not forgetting me! I have been very busy lately, but will try to catchup with you guys. Thanks so much for all of you who donated towards autoclave for my surgery!! We have been experiencing some crisis on ground, but once this is sorted out, I am going to rush to Nairobi to get the autoclave!

Oh, yes, I have written 2 books in the past and 3rd one is going to get published in June. However, it is all in Japanese and have not yet thought about translating them to English. I should I think…

Asuka, we have just heard about the two lions who died…I’m sure poison caused their deaths and we are all distraught about this. Can the rangers be trained to administer the antidote, perhaps with a dart gun? Please tell us how we can you help the lions!

Hi again! Maybe you could sell the books to an English publisher who would do the translation work for you?
