Good times in Kenya

Drive around Lake Nakuru park. Pink flamingos, rhinos (white), bufallos, girafes, baboons, rock hyrax, etc, etc. Is a very nice park, nice view, even has the remnants of a water road used in the fliming of Out of Africa (a popular movie in these parts).

After lunch, the Irish girls head off to climb Mount Kenya, a mountain that stradles the equator yet has numerous glaciers on top of it. The 3 of us go on to Lake Naivashu. We arrive early enough to wander around the town a bit. Jimmy, the driver, found a hotel for us and took off, saying he'd be back in 2.5 hours to take us to find food, so we have some time to walk.

And so i find myself leading 2 Japanese girls around a dirt poor town that i've never been in. Even better, they're both wearing facemasks (the thin white paper kind you see doctors wearing) and snapping photos of everything. After aimlessly walking around, we stop in a local joint (Jolly Pub, iirc) for a drink before supper. A nice enough place, the bar has bars around it to prevent people from reaching over and stealing everything. The pub even comes with the standard drunk, and he even speaks English about as well as the standard drunk in the States.
