Really noticed the temperature increase in Kisumu compared to Eldoret. I woke to the sound of the cockerel, and Muslim prayers at dawn. It was about a 4hour drive to Lake Nakuru. Passed through Kerichio Valley, and got some pictures of the tea leave pickers:
We’re staying at the Waterbuck hotel. Unpacked our stuff, and then set off for Lake Nakruru National Park, with some fresh pineapple to keep us going (hmm – hoping my tum’ll be ok, but it’s just too good to resist!). The first Safari was a great experience! We saw Zebras, Impala’s, Buffalo, White Rhino, lots of Flamingos, Storks, Thompson Gazelles (apparently, Gazelles have the straight horns, and Impala’s have the curly ones.)
Disappointingly, we didn’t get to see any Lions though. The Monkey’s came and sabotaged our lunch, and got away with a few bananas, and the rest of our pineapple. After the game drive, we went back to the hotel for dinner. I was super tired. Think all the travelling has caught up with me. I was snoozing by 9.30pm!!!
