      Thank you, but I am at a disadvantage as I don't recognize the name gem facets? Who is this?

    What an amazing opportunity! As a veterinarian who has worked with wildlife and zoo animals (never on that scale!) I found myself torn between “hurry up and get to the gem stuff” and “I want to see more of the sanctuary” 😂
    Thanks for sharing!!!!

      In the next part I lost track of all the gem mines we visited. Hope you enjoy the rest of the adventure.

    The opening music was African, and I was healed from the start to the end ♪
    Elephant milk time was cute♪
    Everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves, and I smiled when they saw it ♪ Thank you ♪

    Why is the price one pays for rough so guarded? Is it to avoid scrutiny? If you got a bargain, great. If you over indulge, then experience gained. We're vicariously following along with your first hand experience to gain insight. Keep up the great vids!

      Thank you. Regarding price for rough. My answer remains unchanged. I am very happy to make tutorial videos on how to cut gemstones, and I hope they help new cutters improve their cutting. I will leave to others the debate the right price for various rough material. There are many Face Book sites where these topics are debated, constantly, and the discussions almost always end up a bit heated (ok, lets be honest...ALWAYS end up heated)...so I will pass on any such discussions. If you find a piece of gemstone rough that you like....but it! Best of luck!

      Is it possible to submit a license application prior to traveling to Kenya?​@@BOPIESDiamondsFineJewelry
