Safari 2

rhinos, giraffes, antelopes, gazelles, zebras, baboons, lion and we nearly hit cow. most of the day has been spent in a car looking at the scenenary, animals and people. For anyone visiting Kenya I can recommend the baboon cliff camp site in the Lake Nakuru national park. The park itself was not very big, but the lake and surrounding cliffs provided nice surroundings for my first safari experience. I wish we had spent more time around the lake Nakuru, but then again as we already on our way to Masai Mara, I cannot be disappointed. Hopefully we’ll do also end up somewhere where we can stay the night as the schedule is bit tight and Nandish speeding 140 km/h on the not so good African roads… just passing a cattle truck with “in god we trust” written to the back kind of emphasises the point. however, we are not likely to reach our destination in time and maybe I finish writing this entry in the car instead of a posh lodge where we are heading (without knowing if they have rooms, as we are one day early).

never made it to the posh place, after several attempts of getting to the right road, and then turning back because Nandish thought NO WAY MAN, we ended up in Narok. The hotel, Shield & Spear, was pretty crap with no toilet seats, toilet paper nor breakfast. Maybe it was worth the $10 as the rains during the night were quite heavy and sleeping over the night in the car would have been quite impossible.
