Masai Mara Safari Day 2 – Various places


An early start, but thankfully nowhere near as early as the previous day, we met up with Ali. I’d wisely decided to go into the bathroom last so I was at least able to muster some tepid water out of the shower head. All freshened up it was time to brave the mean streets of Nairobbery in search of some breakfast. Jill and I had made it about a couple of hundred yards when we bumped into to Timmy who was on his way to pick Kristin up from the bus terminal. The plan was to then come pick us up from the hotel before heading out of the city centre to pick up the final three members of our tour as they were living in Nairobi already.

Various snacks. On the road from Kampala to Nairobi



Sorry it’s been a while. I fell off the back of a boda a little while back and buggered up, but didn’t break, my left wrist. Now that I can use it without too much pain again, I’ll start catching up on my food reviews. There are quite a few in the backlog. The first one back is a bit different as there isn’t a single restaurant or café involved.


What seems like ages ago now, I saw a post on Facebook of someone going to Masai Mara for a three day safari and if anyone was interested in joining her. The safari would be at the time of the great migration of wildebeest, zebra and other animals north from the Serengeti in Tanzania. There’s supposed to be well over a couple of million animals that make this annual northbound trip.
