Wow. So today was a "lie-in". I woke up at 7 then again at 8.30, then got up and dressed for a yummy breakfast buffet at 9!! After breakfast we read, played cards etc then headed to the pool (less than 100 metres from our rooms!!) for an hour of sunbathing and swimming. My bikini top definitely is a little small for me!! After swimming and reading/sunbathing we went for lunch. Buffet of course!! After lunch we went back to reading and playing cards, then josh a...

As promised, a 5.45am wake up call/alarm for a 6am breakfast. Sam, one of the staff, brought us HEAPS of banana pancakes made by Linda, the American lady who owns the place. They were delicious!!!! Nasir came at 6.15 and we packed up and left by 6.25. We drove for 15 minutes to get to the ferry, which would take us across the lake, and then we had an hour and a half drive to Kisumu, where we paid Nasir/the company he worked for and then drove to the airport. We...

After a rough and noisy night, breakfast was at 9am - toast and fruit. At about 10, we headed out onto Lake Victoria on a dodgy handmade sailing boat. We sailed around another island (this one was much smaller than Rusinga), and back to the place, which took about an hour and a half. We chilled in our rooms until lunch at about 1 - chapatis and lentil type stuff. Very nice!! Nasir (our driver) came at about 2.30 to take us round the island on a small tour. We f...

So this morning was early!! Well, around 7am wake up call, and I forced myself out of bed at 7.30 for breakfast. Breakfast was short, as we had the final bits and pieces to pack up and put in the car. We left around 8.30 after a picture in front of their house. We said goodbye and thank you to Gordon and Brigita then left. We were going to stop off at Ken's office to say bye, but he was in a meeting so we couldn't. We drove about a half hour away to Kericho Golf...

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...
