Well we left mombasa on saturday night. It was very sad to say goodbye to everyone. Have made alot of good friends there. We left at 10:30 pm and took a bus to nairobi. We arrived at 6;30am and transfered to a matatu and headed to Navaisha. When we arrived we literally got dropped on the side of the highway with all our stuff.... so we had not alot of choice and got onto two motor bikes with all of our gear and headed for the lake... it was like a 40 min motor bike ride and ended up costing much more than we wanted but oh well.
Anyways we are staying at this place called top camp which sit way up above the lake and is amazing. We went the first afternoon for a bike ride with a local we met down to one of the soda lakes and watched the hippos and flammingos and then headed home and saw some girraffes on the way.
The yesterday we got up early and did a bike safari through hells gate national park. It was amazing, we saw zebras, girraffes, water buffalo all sorts of antelope, gazelles etc and babboons and warthogs. We explored a huge set of ravines at the end which tomb raider and rqaider of the lost ark were filmed in. Then we headed back out of the park. We had to get off the rtoad a ferw times to avoid being charged by water buffallo.... which was very cool. I then got a flat tire and had to walk like 6km out... oh well. It also started to rain but it was a nice day all around. Today we are heading to nakuru to see some sights.
anyways hope all is well at home
Jessie
