I am sorry that I haven't written for a couple of days. This sporadic wifi is making me crazy! Yesterday I actually had the time to get caught up and then the wifi was off! Grr! Have only a few minutes now before we hit the road so will have to be brief!
Last I wrote we were in Nairobi. We spent that day on the road, driving to Amboseli National Park in the south of Kenya. We were in the jeep most of the day but the time flies by as there is SO much to see along the way! It is hard to describe it. We pass through lots of villages with colourful markets set up along the road and people everywhere. We often have to slow down for goats, sheep or cows on the road.
It was very hot when we arrived in Amboseli. We are staying at another tented camp, which is really cool. We got here in time to do an afternoon game drive. This park is known for its huge herds of elephants and we saw elephants!!! It was an amazing experience as large family groups moved across the park often crossing the road right in front of us. We got to watch their natural behaviours close up. Lots of little babies!!
Yesterday we did two game drives, one early in the morning and one in the afternoon. We relaxed at the lodge through the heat of the day and many of us spent time cooling off in the pool. Oops, sunburns today! 😞 We were so lucky to get a clear view of Kilimanjaro, as it is usually covered in clouds. It made for an amazing backdrop for our pictures.
Last night we had our farewell dinner and a little party with our guides. The evenings don't go late as we are always bagged by the end of the day!!
This morning we are up early to head to Tanzania to try to reach the boarder before the busses get there! We will be sad to bid farewell to our Kenyan guides but I am sure our guides in Tanzania will also be great!
Gotta run, will try to add pictures later!
