Lake Nakuru National Park


At the gate I left my window open and suddenly there were monkeys in the car. Everybody ran to the car and tried to get them out. In the end they stole liquorice and our tomato's. We had to go back to the market to buy new tomato's. At last we were in the park in the camping area where I spotted something big in the distance. It was a white Rhino! We jumped in the car and saw the Rhino but we also saw something else.... Lions!! and a dead zebra.
The lake is known because of the lesser and greater flamingo's and pelicans. It was a beautiful sight. After we finished photographing the lions we toured around the lake seeing a spotted hyena, lots of water bucks, buffalo, baboons, elands, impala's, gazelles, giraffes and even my favourite animal the warthog. But I don't know how many Rhino we saw, more then 15!! imagine that. The next day the weather was not so nice and we thought we lost the way. The road was terrible but Ed saw his favourite animal: the tortoise! I was the happiest person although Ed and Helma have seen enough safari parks now. Now we're off to Nairobi. Evert

Hoi,hoi,

Ik moest wel lachen om deze foto hoor. Kan mij nog een foto herinneren aan het Nikya Plateau, maar dan zonder meer erachter, de rest is hetzelfde alleen allemaal twee jaar ouder.
Hé Bart wie vertelde daar een goede mop?????? Ik moet er gewoon van lachen.
Al met al maken jullie wel veel mee. Geweldig hoor.
