Today, my back was still in lots of pain, so I decided that I needed more sleep rather than another game drive. So the others all got up at 6am whilst I slept in til 8.30am. They got back about 9.30, at which point we all had breakfast. After breakfast it was a pack and tidy up. That all took about an hour, and we were off by 11am. The journey took about 4 and 1/2 hours but seemed a LOT longer!! We got back to kristina's house in Kericho at about 3.30, and we sa...

Today we had a sort of lie-in... We were woken up at 7.30 for breakfast at 8, and then we set off for an all-day game drive/safari just before 9. Kristina had a bit of an embarrassing time trying to get out of Enkipai Camp, which included: a herd of cattle, stalling on a hill, beeping the horn, lots of people looking at her, and the circle of life blaring through our speakers!! We went through a different gate, so we drove 30 mins instead of 15 to get into the a...

Today was another stupidly early start!!!! The gates to the Mara open at 6.30am, so Karen wanted to get there at 6.30... We got a wake up call at 5.45, then tea was at 6, and we were meant to leave at 6.15, but the boys didn't get to the "mess tent" (dining room/siting room) until 6.30 so we were slightly late getting off. We got to the gate by 6.50 which was perfectly in time to get beautiful pictures of the sunrise!! We saw the usual animals (giraffe, wildebee...

So today we had another stupidly early start at 6.30am - even Kristina couldn't get up!! It was all in favour of getting away by 9, which we manage to do!! After breakfast and more packing up of course!! So the journey took around 6 hours in total, with 2 of those hours on smooth tarmac. The rest on bumpy roads!! We stopped for lunch in the middle of a plain, covered in wildebeest!! Amazing sight/site!! We finally got to the camp at around 3pm or just before. We...
