Nairobi- Isiolo

We left Nairobi without problems. The road was in a good condition and the scenery in the Rift valley was wonderful. We hoped to see Mount Kenya but it had disappeared in the clouds. Slowly the vegetation changed and became more dry and the soil white instead of red. We passed the Equator!


We stopped at a nice place called Gadissa Lodge run by a Dutch couple. Unfortunately the pool was green, so no swimming for the boys. The next morning we finally saw Mount Kenya from a distance. Although we could have visited some more game parks we wanted to go ahead. A difficult road lay ahead. Of course the boys were disappointed, but sometimes choices have to be made.
