Lets see, we have 20 min to kill before meeting Julie - a Courtenay friend from Fitness Excellence - who is working on a project in Kenyas biggest slum.
ALOT has happened since last Tuesday.
All day Wed Feb 4th we drove from Kakamega to Masaii Mara. We got there about 5pm and before we even reached our accomodation we had giraffes and zebras crossing the road in front of us. Gazelles, ostriches, secretary . Its amazing. Its like a display, its like being in Lion King.
All day Thursday Feb 5th we drove around. We are staying at a ridiculously fancy lodge. Saw a cheetah hunting (unsuccessfully) a gazelle about 5 minutes into our day. Later it was several groups of elephants and hippos swimming in a river. Ended the day watching lions lolling around their freshly killed water bufafalo. Wow.
Fri Feb 6th we drove all day again to Lake Nakura. Here we saw Rhinos and flamingoes and got attacked (almost) by a couple baboons. One opend the back hatch and jump. Many flamingoes and pelicans and zebras, and , and...
Sat Feb 7th we hiked into a volcanoe crater. Got a bit lost. Cody got almost ill from dehydration. 4 hours later we climbed out. Cody bounced back quickly. Tanya killed 4 hours waiting for us talking and shopping with locals at crater edge.
Now, Feb 8th we are across the street from Hilton. Heading to Gumo estates. Tommorrow we meet Oikocredit representative and see a microfinace project or two.
Them's the facts. Plenty more. Gotta go.
