Safari in Terminal 5

Terminal 5, Heathrow and I’m surrounded in a sea of khaki and name badges. Yes it’s an American tour on route to the safaris on offer in Kenya. And yet somehow, with their khaki shirts, trousers, hats, fanny packs and walking boots, you’d think they were already there. Now in my humble opinion there’s something extremely odd about wearing full safari get up at the airport. Whilst khaki is perfectly practical in the savannahs of Africa, there it really ought to stay. Sat in khaki in Terminal 5 you can only ever end up looking somewhat an idiot, especially when the outfit is accessorised with a ‘my name is…’ badge. Wrong….just wrong!
