Market day in Marsabit. The men barter for the cattle on one side of the highway... |
... and the women sell the camels and goats on the other side. [Sorry I didn't get any pictures of that.] |
We saw many swollen and gushing rivers! Sadly, many lost their lives because of them. |
When we stopped along the way, we got some boiled maize - - a nice snack. |
Robai saw a crocodile for her first time ever! |
We stopped at Thika and hiked around the area of Chania Falls. |
The day before we left Eldoret, Robai and I had also traveled 75 miles (one way) to Kocholia to visit Agnes and her boys (just 5 miles from Malaba on the Uganda border).
Once she and I returned to Nairobi, she had another trip back to Eldoret and I headed home to Ngong town. We had traveled over 1,500 miles in the span of two weeks - - all of it via public transportation.
We certainly saw a lot of Kenya. It was an amazing trip!
