We started our day with a very early rise to see some wildlife. The hope was to see the elusive rhinos up close and personal. We were not disappointed as we saw both white and black rhinos that were almost close enough to touch. We are enjoying a relaxing evening in Nairobi before doing a city tour in the morning. Every day has been unique and amazing for many reasons. With only a couple of days left on the trip, we are going to try to make the most of every minute.
It has been an amazing ten days with too many fascinating moments to describe in a few words. We have one more early morning game viewing drive in the morning and then we are off to Nairobi for the next several days. Today was another wonderful day where we saw white rhinos, which isn’t white but is larger than the black rhinos. We also stopped at a waterfall before going on to see more giraffes, water buffaloes, and and flamingos. To celebrate the day, we enjoyed the drink of Kenya, the Dawson. We are looking forward to seeing what the city of Nairobi has to offer.
We have had an exhausting couple of days, but we finally have a few minutes to share a couple of our adventures. Yesterday, after a long drive from the Serengeti in Tanzania, we crossed the border back into Kenya (stories to come later) to go to the Maasai Mara. We had a wonderful evening seeing cheetahs, leopards, and many other animals. We awoke very early this morning to enjoy a wonderful balloon ride followed by a champagne breakfast. From there we started our game drive where we had the most amazing experience. A cheetah jumped on the hood of our Land Cruiser, not once, but twice. We will share photos of that unbelievable and unforgettable encounter once we can get to all of our photographs. Still a few more days on safari before we head to Nairobi.
