On our way early, head out to pay for lodgings ($10 per night, per person). Lots of coffee plantations along the way, and more climbs up mountain passes. Today, however, the Bullet has NO problem running up this hill! So lessons learned, after these long dusty roads, take a time out to clean the filter again.
Stop over at Thompsons waterfall. They want me to pay for the priviellage of looking at it and taking pictures. I blow them off. Nothing will come close to Murchison at this point. Phifft. Order a plate of chips and 2 glasses of piping hot milk. Annelie and I mix in some Milo into the milk, NICE!
Off at 12:30, drive through Ol’kalau (where Fanie grew up), head into Gill Gill at around 13:20 (there is a big army garrison here. And aparantly this is like the De Aar of Kenya, were troops gather for deployment).
By 14:45 we drive into “Smelly Town”. Which is.. well... smelly. And rundown. Arrive in Karen just after 15:00. Before we head back to Pat’s place, we go to the shops, have ice cream, draw money, refuel and re-shop. We also need to look into what we’ll need for the 3 or so days in the Masai Mara.
I bake us another 1.4 kg beer bread... which comes out raw (only baked it for an hour, in a gas stove), nuked it for 30 minutes, slapped in back into the oven for 15 and tada! Brilliant bread! We put cubes of cheese into this one, but not hardly enough. Still... DELICIOUS!
We’ll be staying here for 2 days, so more r&r and more DVD burning, journal updatin’ and pic uploading. (I hope you kids appreciate my labours!!)
That’s it, over and out.
[G & A], out
What do you do, in the bath?
