ANOTHER TRIP DOWN MAGADI ROAD

3/5/2018

Comments

 
Last week a couple of my friends and I took off down Magadi road to visit my Masai friends.

I was delights to see the amount of rain that they're having and could barely recognise the landscape, it has been transformed.  The grass has shot up creating a beautiful green carpet dotted with beautiful white flowers.

My friends have been planting and are flurishing.

It still amazes me how easy it is to get so wrapped up in daily life and superficial things.  Visiting this village always brings me back to basics.  The simple joy and happiness at a little rain is absolutely beautiful.  
​
Count your blessings.

I LOVE travelling and have been lucky enough to make it a big part of my life.  
​ In April I visited a new Country, Hungary.  My family and I stayed in a lovely Airbnb apartment located right in the centre of the beautiful city if Budapest.  I took over 1500 images on our 5 day trip but I've selected my favourites to share with you all in 4 blogposts; The Beautiful City Of Budapest, Budapest By Night, GoPro Budapest & Sunrise At The Fisherman's Bastion.

Short Trip To Olorgesailie

3/9/2015

Comments

 
A few weeks ago my boyfriend and I headed down into the Rift Valley to visit the ancient site of Olorgesailie.  Turning off the bumpy Magadi road onto the white dust track that leads to the site was a lovely relief and as the dust flew up around us I was reminded of my childhood family trip to the wonderful place.  
Picture

We spent the afternoon wandering around the site, looking at the bones and ancient tools first discovered in 1942.

A lovely little cat accompanied us for dinner!

We drove up the nearby mountain, getting a wicked view of the valley cast in evening shadows.

As night fell, the sky lit up with streaks of clouds.

At night the heavens opened up revealing millions of starts illuminating the night sky.

This trip reminded me of how much natural beauty surrounds us here in Kenya and how much I love exploring it.
