Do They Have Giraffe's in Mombasa?

I love this Penny Black stamp, aptly named, Longing.

Well longing for the better weather is what I'm doing as it's just been so cold here this weekend - the central heating is even back on!!!

Anyway, onto this weeks challenges, & as I've been a bit pushed for time, I've had to roll 2 into 1, something I don't really like to do.

The layout I've used is from the Sketch Saturday Challenge, & the theme to tie in with travel/holidays is for the Penny Black Challenge. Now I hear you all asking what a giraffe has to do with holidays..? Well, sadly nothing to do with my holidays, but hopefully something to do with Alan, my son's holiday in October, when he heads off to Mombasa for a charity trip abroad. (Lucky him!)
