We left El Karama today. A 6.30am start, then breakfast at 7 (the kids were there before the parens which was a surprise!!). Mango for breakfast again!! Then everything was packed up into the 2 cars, and we left by 8.30, and hour before we were planning!! The journey was LONG!!!! Too many hours to count... But we finally arrived at Kristina's house at around 5.30!! That was after stopping off for a supermarket shop for over an hour, picking up another car which ...

I had the most awful night last night!! Every time I turned over I woke up because my back was so painful. We woke up at 6am though, in time for tea at 6.15, and set off just after 6.30am. We saw an amazing sunrise, but unfortunately again not much wildlife. A few giraffes, zebra, and different types of deer/antelope here and there, and we did see a huge male ostrich, but nothing else really, and it was so cold!! I had a lot of layers on and was still cold!! :/ ...

After a lovely lie-in until 9am, we slowly got up and had a breakfast of fried egg, bacon, sausage, wheatabix, and tea. We then set off at 10.30 for a walking safari, which took about 2 or 3 hours. We didn't see much at all, apart from 6 TORTOISES!!!!!! (2 of whom were mating, 2 were trying to mate, and 2 were solo). The females are much bigger than the males, but all their shells are amazing!! Amazingggg to see wild tortoises!!!! We also saw an ostrich, but it w...

WE SAW A LEOPARD!!!!!! I was feeling a bit better this morning so I got up for the morning game drive. It was very misty and still quite wet due to the heavy monsoon rain last night, but josh and Seumus sat on the roof, and theo, me and krissie stood up, or had our legs dangling inside the car whilst sat in the roof. We didn't see much, but about an hour into the safari we suddenly stopped as we saw a leopard sat down 100 metres ahead of us on the road!! We tried...

Well today was interesting... I woke up at around 1am feeling very ill. The generator was off so I had no electricity to find the toilet... So with a bad stomach and feeling like I wanted to puke, I stumbled through the dark to get to my mum and dads en-suite bathroom. I accidentally woke them up though :/ but it was all good, because they gave me a torch and a sick bag to take back to my room with me. When Karen (krissie's mum) woke us up at 6.30am I was still ...
