A Rhino, Up Close and Personal!

---

I drove from the school to Nakuru by taxi. The driver is a friend of Vicki and Geoff's. We passed the Equator twice, and came down into the Rift Valley. The drive was beautiful...

Nakuru is a big town and the scene of some of the election violence back in January. There I met up with the safari group, and we headed to Lake Nakuru, where we would spend the night. Once we were checked into the beautiful Flamingo Hill Camp, we went out to see the animals...

The amount of wildlife is incredible...the pix will show better than words! I will put them in the next blog....

(All the pix from this part of the trip are here now)

No need for a caption!
We were very close and had to remain quiet...they are easily annoyed!

Milk going to the dairy
We were in a dairy area...most people used donkeys to haul their milk.

Arriving at Nakuru
These bikes have seats on the back and you can hire them to carry you!

My new friend, Olgah
I met her in the gift shop in the hotel where I was waiting for the sarfari group. We had a great talk...
