Rift Valley.
After some sightseeing in Nairobi, we drove off to St. Mary’s hospital in Elementeita. The roads were quite good all the way, but people were driving like crazy, so we got a lot of near death experiences and plenty of opportunity to catch a glimpse of real rural life in Kenya. The route to Elementeita also offered lots of astonishing views of the beautiful Rift Valley.

At the viewpoints, there were also plenty of souvenir stalls, so I decided to buy some of the nice crafted goods. Though, looking like a tourist, it took me a lot of haggling to get the price down to a reasonable level an even when I thought, I had done quite well, Father Bahati were offered the goods to half the price that I was supposed to pay.

Thanks for the comment. The valley was really beautiful. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to really capture it properly with my small digital travel camera, but hope that you at least got an impression of it.
You are on an amazing adventure! Such gorgeous photos.
who would have thought kenya can have so much greenery?
I was also really surprised to see all the different landscapes. Africa is so much more than Sahara:)
