A good last day in Nairobi

That is, until we learned our flight to London was delayed from 10:45 pm to 1:38 am. We have been at the Nairobi airport since about 8 pm. It's too warm in most of the terminal areas. British Air has setup a free refreshment stand with drinks and sandwiches.  It was supposed to be ready at 10, but 10.30 was closer to the truth. The joys of international travel. 

At the Nairobi Game Park 

We had breakfast at 6 am at Little Daughters and were on the way to the safari by 6:45 with my friend Barrack tagging along as my guest. We saw just about every possible animal and a few cool birds, finishing around 1 pm. We had a close look at a lion feeding on a water Buffalo, got very near to several rhinos and took a hike with an armed Park ranger during which we saw a few quite large crocodiles.  

After the safari,  we ate at the Veranda, an outdoor restaurant set in paradise, with palm trees, flowers and birds singing as we ate good food.

After lunch, we went to the Giraffe Centre and my friend Daniel gave us a nice tour. Following that, it was back to Little Daughters for showers, team devotions and preparing to leave for the airport. This is when we learned via email about our delayed flight. Catherine ordered lots of pizza for everyone, the team leaders settled accounts with her and we visited with other teams until it was time to head to the airport.  More to follow,  hopefully from London as we await our flight to Austin. Blessings!
