Last day in the Masai Mara

Sun, 2 Nov 2008 | By rich | Views [1446]

The alarm goes off at 5:30am and it's beginning to get light outside. We leave the room around 6:15am, after locking our bags and moving them away from all windows. After a quick cup of coffee we hop in the van with the Australian couple. (Bobbi and ... Read more >

Theft in the Mara

Sat, 1 Nov 2008 | By rich | Views [1294]

It's low season and tourism has been especially low this year due to the violence after Kenya's recent election. Our lodge is empty - we counted 12 people staying here, including us. After the game drive we shower and head to the bar for a drink. It's ... Read more >

Second Game Drive in the Masai Mara

Sat, 1 Nov 2008 | By rich | Views [676]

The lights come on and wake us up. It's 6am and generators have just been turned on again. Also the hot water is turned on, so we have quick showers and head off to breakfast. It's cool this morning and I'm glad I have on my long sleeve tee shirt.... Read more >

We arrive at the lodge, Mara Hippo Tented Camp, around 4pm. It's a nice lodge on the edge of the Mara entrance. It has the works: pool, bar, resturant, tents, cabins, stone lodges. Only things it's missing are, people. The place is pretty empty, but ... Read more >

Nairobi, Kenya

Thu, 30 Oct 2008 | By rich | Views [460]

Day 1 Our flight lands at 4am and in a sleep deprived fog we have to sort out our Kenyan visas. The visas cost $50 and they only accept $ or Ksh (Kenyan Shillings). We don't have either. So Rich has to run to an ATM while I stand around yawning. By ... Read more >

Þá eru bara nokkrir klukkutímar þangað til ég legg í hann heim. Ég trúi því varla að ég sé að koma heim, ég var að velta því fyrir mér í dag hvort ég hafi verið of fljót á mér að ákveða að koma fyrr heim, en ég held ég sé samt sátt við þessa ákvörðun ... Read more >

Vá hvað það var gaman í gær. Ég fór í síðasta skipti með heilsugæslunni. Kom eiginlega mjög á óvart, Mercy og Pauline hringdu á undan sér og eiginlega skipuðu Shanni að lofa mér að fara og það tókst. Við fórum til Naibor sem er rétt um 30 mín ... Read more >
