Gosh, it seems quite sad that your trip is coming to an end, I've very much enjoyed reading about it! It's been so varied - Holland, then Safari, then Tropical Beach - amazing!

The 6000/12000 Kenyan shilling story was funny to read about - I imagine the lovely lazy beach days were having an impact here, lol! Gosh, that is a long journey back for you - I imagine these relaxing beach days helped prepare you for this.

Final Days
Thanks Alex! It was such a varied trip, it seemed longer than it actually was. Yes, the hotel in Mombasa was a disappointment at first, but we had a much improved viewpoint the next day, and ended up very much enjoying our time there. It was a lovely relaxing way to end the trip, and made the long return trip home much less arduous!
