First day trip to Masai Mara

We had breakfast at Little Daughters and hit the road for the Masai Mara around 8am. We got to.stop at the Great Rift Valley for some pictures and made a couple of rest stops on the way. About 4 hours into the trip, we drove a few miles on new highway the Chinese had constructed.  It soon ended and we were on dirt roads that our driver Simon called "riding the horse".  We spent around 2 hours going up down and all around before crossing a river in our van. We arrived at the Fig Tree Lodge around 2:15 pm and had an incredible lunch. It is a first class hotel and great food is abundant.  We aren't at the end of the world but you can see it from here.  We had about a 3 hour safari before dark and I saw my first hyena and elephants in the wild. Cool.

More to follow as the adventure continues!
