Been on a game drive/ safari today. Saw water buffalo, impalas, python, rhino, zebra, giraffe, eagles and lions with their lion cubs. Was brilliant and we had a good laugh in our jeep.

I will be sad to leave Kenya but looking forward [ Read More ]
Morning! Just had some breakfast. It was nice to be able to take my time and not have to have weetabix! There are loads of hippos in the lake and you can see them from the hotel. They woke us up in the night roaring and making noises like a lion! We have a 4 hour transfer today and then a few of us are off on safari this afternoon. [ Read More ]

I was [ Read More ]
Hi all, This is Kaz blogging today as the wifi isn’t great where Jane is at the moment so she’s called me with an update and to keep you all informed of her progress.

Amazing achievement for her personally, and to complete [ Read More ]
Hi everyone, First of all thank you all for your comments as they are really getting me through. All is well. We arrived at the hotel and it’s very basic, certainly not your local Hilton with the toilets being two holes side by side! But it’s all good and I’m really enjoying the experience. Tomorrow will be the hardest day of all as there’s lots of cycling up hills: from Kabarnet [ Read More ]
