Missing Trades
Feel so much better - only felt ill this morning, not like i was dying.
Another game drive, then we head off. At one stop i trade my carbiner and 300KSh for a rosewood rhino - these folks like their trading, and i like that. The guy originally wanted 2500KSh for the rhino. The carbiner cost me about $1, so i think i did good. Except that i've no carbiner now.
Lily asks me if i can fix her tripod. Get as far as i can, then realise i need my leatherman for something neither a sword nor a club can do. Show her what to do once she has the appropriate tools. Reminds me that i helped fix Barbara's camera yesterday, and almost needed the leatherman's scissors for that. If i did now, i wouldn't be able to fix their camera either. Oh well, no need to guess what my fix purchase upon return will be. I'll have a number 2 engraved on the new one.
Lily takes off to look for Mountain Gorillas in Rwanda or Uganda. I've told her i've heard there's a long wait in those places, but none for seeing them in DRCongo, she doesn't want to go. The 5 of us contine on to a nice hotel in Nakuru. Nice, but still rough around the edgesç the sink drains into a pipe that runs into the wall, then down to a hole at the bottom of the wall, and from that hole, into a hole in the floor, the same hole the shower drains into.
