Saturday 1 - Sunday 2 October 2005
Although yesterday's overview is called Nairobi to Mount Kenya, this is an actual picture of Mount Kenya.
We already flew over the Equator on the way over, but now we took a bit more time and a photo opportunity.
Alcohol free Guinness go figure.
... and the roads are getting smaller ...
I can never remember whether the camels with one hump are camels or dromedaries.
One of our stops today was a traditional village. Here the woman of the Samburu tribe sing their welcoming song.

Making fire...
... the traditional way.

Welcome, to today's show: Is it a log? or is it a croc? Contestents can enter the water now...
Baboons (monkeys) in a tree.
I was amazed that you could see elephants from even closer than you can in the zoo.
And the baby elephants are so cute.
Spot the pair of ostritches at sunset.
The sunset is much shorter than in Europe. It's almost like somebody flicks a switch.
The first giraffe we saw from closeup. They where much easier spooked then a lot of the other animals.
It's a bit blurry, but trust me, it's a leopard.
The sun rising over the river at our campsite.
Baboon drinking from the tap at the toilets on the campsite. Although toilets was maybe saying too much.
The baby baboons stay cute.

Around the rivers it was realy green, as soon as you get away from the river it turns dusty and desolate.
Dik dik (my favourite animals)
Elephants crossing
The part of Kenya where we were has a partial solar eclipse which gave very funky shadows. Unfortunately we weren't in the full solar eclipse part.
Part II of fancy a swim or spot the croc.

I could have sworn I saw a leopard in the twisty tree.
There was a leopard but not in the tree.
An at the end of another beautifull day a nice sun set.
