oloolaimutia, Rift Valley, Kenya kenyayouth... started). This one little girl just walked up to me and grabbed my hand and we started walking hand and hand together. Than a little boy grabbed the other. I wish I could download the pictures because they are amazing. I was trying to get her sister to take a picture of us but it was not happening. Anyway I just could not get over the image of this crazy mazungu walking down this path holding hands with two little kids and a few following behind. It's great ...
El Doret, Kenya samathe... It was so hot and we all found it really hard work, especially me and Amanda who had got a stomach bug! We continued again in the afternoon, and then we all did our last lot of washing before going home. The clothes we wore for project were completely destroyed so we were all going to leave them behind - they will be given to people in the local community, and all the white clothes were still not white, even after a night spent in bleach! Thursday morning we continued at project. We ...
Mombassa, Kenya katie-ivison... similiar to dinner. On other days when we didn't return to camp we would have a packed lunch which was a sandwich, a hard boiled egg and some fruit. Dinner would start with some soup - it ranged from carrot to lettice to pumpkin, but the only problem was they all tasted the same as they were so salty. For lunch and dinner we would either get rice, potatoes or pasta and with it beef, chicken or pork. It tended to be stew or stir fry, but sometimes we got ...
Mombassa, Kenya katie-ivison... The porridge was cooked over a fire outside, and was made of water, sugar and a mix which we think was maize. It was very runny and looked quite like wet sand. It wan't very appetising, but again the kids loved it, asking for seconds and thirds, and it was another local thing which we were glad to try. So Amanda and Vanessa could wash up Jilly and I had to go fetch water from the nearby well with the children (as we were told, in Kenya the women do all the work ...
Diani, Kenya katie-ivison... old house right in Stonetown that was tall and creaky with loads of character. Little tiny, rotting balconies hung outside each of our rooms, which were next to the loudspeakers of a few of the hundreds of mosques and filled the air with the morning prayers. From the balcony, I could see the series of mazes that curled around the sea of ancient old buildings, as well as the busy port below me where cargo ships and old dhows puttered about. The busy bodies on the ...
Tsavo East-Zanzibar, Kenya danicastraithWelcome to Kenya! It was a long and enjoyable stint in Ethiopia, but its time to move on. Like most on the tour I was happy to say goodbye to Ethiopia and Hello to Kenya. As the only country in Africa to effectively fight colonization (from the Italians) Ethiopia is the country that no one seems to understand. Stuck between the Arab world and Black Africa it is a complete anomaly. The ...
Moyale, Kenya jmckerricher... des Tsavo-Flusses mit ein paar Krokodilen und ziemlich vielen Hippos nicht viel zu sehen. Auch das sogenannte "Rhino Sanctuary" war nach dem Mittagessen wie leergefegt, von Nashoernern war weit und breit nichts zu sehen. Dafuer war der Ausblick vom Hotel aus gigantisch und der Speisesaal hatte sein ganz eigenes Highlight: Klippschliefer. Diese wie Murmeltiere aussehenden Gesellen waren durch das lange Bestehen der Lodge mittlerweile ganz zahm und liefen geduldig ...
Diani, Kenya briskoWe left for Diani Beach the day after we arrived in Tiwi. It's just down the road and we heard of a hotel that was much much cheaper than the one we were at the last night so we headed there. This hotel was actually much nicer than the more expensive one, although it wasn't right off the beach. Still, the beach was only about 100 meters away & it had running hot water (something to get excited about)! We ...
Diani, Kenya southernmegs... her for driving on. Two mad women panicking outside the car, slamming the window with the heels of our hands, my hair had come down while running and the ends were flapping like medusa, mixing with tears and sweat. I thank God that this lady took pity and opened her doors, and once we were inside locked them again immediately. It was only then that I permitted myself to glance back. I had caused carnage. Cars were criss-crossed over the road where I had run into their ...
