Day 4 Mount Kenya Mountain Lodge

We arrived in time for lunch. A big mountain lodge next to a watering hole where we are supposed to see a variety of animals. So far we have seen wart hogs, a water buck ,water buffalo and have managed to repel a monkey invasion. The people next door to us made the mistake of leaving the door to the balcony open and had their room ransacked by a couple of ckeeky monkeys.
It is a nice setting and we will be relaxing for the rest of the day animal spotting before moving on tomorrow at 07:30 to Lake Naivasha. Oh, and I have just heard the rumblings of thunder so maybe we will be treated to another lightening display. Oops and now the monkeys have returned. Time go………………………
I’m back, the thunder came to nothing so we were all sat there quietly on our balconies watching the buffaloes feeding. Picture the scene, everyone eagerly taking photos. Then all of a sudden some daft English woman sees her friends down in a specially made bunker for viewing the animals, and she shouts, “hey, look at the monkeys in the cage” and the buffaloes stampede and bugger off. Who and earth would do such a thing??? Well Marlene of course ….

Who's that shouting?


Home sweet home?

    Tell him to get himself trained up quickly, then he can be one of the hungry over time grabbing gits that Esso/Exxon is famous for. Then you can holiday around the world. Not much of a life for Matt though. Maybe just do the lottery.
