I've been a bit slack writing what we've been up to recently...we've just done a two week circuit in Uganda to see the gorillas and are now back in Nairobi for a 10 day layover away from the truck. I haven't got loads of time now but will stick up a few photos and write more in a few days time when I have time.
In a nutshell we went across to the triangle point where Uganda, Rwanda and Congo meet and trekked in a national park called Biwindi (whichmeans impenetrable darkness). Ok, so the honest truth is that the Gorillas were ok...but not the most amazing thing I've ever done personally (especially when theycost $535 US ). It only occured to me after we saw them that we are not actually huge primate lovers (they all kind of look the same to us) but other people we have met swear they are the best things they have ever seen. We also lucked out and had to do a mega 9.5 hour trek to see them across some really difficult jungle terrain. Steve loved it!! haha!!!
However, the Rhino at Nukuru National Park were very very cool to see (and they cost $65). I also really enjoyed visiting a pygmy village where they put on a show for us...and yes some of them were quite small in stature!
Ok, will update lots more soon when we get back from the Masai Mara game park.
Doing well and all is good!
