Locations are over there somewhere... not far...   And when the rain comes you can be sure mud will be soon to follow.
This in one reason we have come to hire the Land Cruisers as our first choice and use the mini buses as secondary vehicles and for luggage.

 

But not all the views are from the mud up...  This is a over the ridge view of the Great Rift Valley.  From here we travel down to the floor of the valley then follow it all West toward Narok.
We always land in Nairobi then we are off through Narok and to one of the three locations: Olmekenyu, Sotik or Morijo. Though it looks close, our first year (1999) due to the incredibly poor road conditions it took us over eight hours to get from Sotik to Olmekenyu. 
Today travel time between most of these places from three to six hours.  When it rains you can double that estimate if you make it through the mud at all. 
Sometimes we are coming this way
Sometimes we are going that way
Some time we just stop cause we don't know which way to go...

 

 

 

 

 

 

(actually we are just waiting for Richard to fix his flat tire a little ways down the mountain.  We can see him stopped on the side of the road across a small ravine.  The good news is he did make it with just one spare tire.)  By the way don't laugh at our bedding on the vehicle, we look funny traveling but we sleep very nicely.
