Lake Nakuru National Park, Kenya

The days are flying by here, so much so that I’ve missed a day of journaling yesterday. We travelled to a new campsite at Nakuru and had our first night of camping. For years it had been a bucket list item of mine to camp in a wildlife park, awakening to the sounds and sights of animals roaming around. Whilst there were none of the Big Five immediately outside our tents, it still scratched the itch that I’d dreamt up of one day living through.

Camping in Africa

The wildlife here was really impressive and we spotted a whole heap of animals. The most impressive encounter being a family of rhinos, which we spent about an hour just watching. We’re on the move again to our next camp site, driving through the countryside of Kenya which is a clean, green change from the dirty and dusty towns we’ve been driving through before. I don’t think there’s any activities today, but tomorrow we head into Uganda.
