June 4th and 5th: Safari journey begins

Today we will set off on a safari in Masai Mara. It is time for us to say our final goodbye’s to the family at the hostel that has taken such good care of us! After a series of photos with our extended Kenyan family we pile into the van for a long journey. Today we will return to Naivasha to stay overnight to break up the drive. Makena is staying in Naro Moru for the week and will reconnect with the group in Nairobi prior to departures.


Into the van again! Today we will reach our destination in Masai Mara. We made a stop at a hotel along the way for a meal and a cold drink. We were given a very warm welcome and we were treated like celebrities, many photos were taken by the hotel staff and we all signed the guestbook. By the end of the day (and after a rather long “African massage” ...or bumpy ride) we had arrived at our destination in Masai Mara. We set up our tents and settled in for the night; tomorrow is going to be a long day on safari!
