Next morning a few were up early, and I could hear rustling nearby.





Inquisitive elephants hoping for a banana.... how cool is that.



Boot warmers…..


The kitchen is in the background.

Last day in the Serengetti as we move to camp near Ngorongoro crater

These are from the beginning of the trip at Naivashabut I forgot to put them on.

Coming in to camp.



Second last night. It was damned cold

Deja ! Where we were two years ago… On the rim of Ngorongoro Crater…







We transferred into Toyotas and away we went. It was even drier than it had been 2 years ago. The lions were in pretty bad condition.

Hmmmm, is that a Finnish Moose I spy?

Could be a new taste sensation





OK, you two get behind him, and I’ll attack from the flank.



Nyah, nyah , nyah nyah nyah….

Wel, everyone must have had to stand on the verandah at lunch time because of bad behaviour, so no check ins. Other than Raggsy sharing her camera magic of course.

So, I finally have a home. I was beginning to think that I'd have to live under a bridge with my little dog and my lovely pink bike. I'm now negotiating securing the pool deck chairs!! Phew.......I'm relieved. AND, FH was sooo excited last night he couldn't sleep and wanted to chat about the jobs we'll do the very minute we get there. My job will be, said I, to make a cup of tea!!! I then slept, he didn't.........

I'm soooo getting my very own pool boy!!!!!!!!!!!

YEEEEHHHHAAAAAWWWW!!!!!

Hiya Nicey,
How lovely.... I have visions of you lying on the deck chair having a toy boy gently caressing you with tanning lotion.....


I confess to a boo boo. I had it in my head it was Lily with the pink bike. Sorry. There's a piccie just for you in my Vietnam pics.

After lunch we drive out of the crater back to the truck and spend our last night at Snake Park at Meserani. I didn’t take any piccies, but this’ll give you an idea.
Meserani Snake Park - Snake Park Campsite

On the way we stop at Mto Wa bu (where we camped 2 years ago) to suss out the markets. Mr Rags bought a 3 piece spear (no trouble getting it back through Customs.). Check out the B.F. Goodrich and Toyo sandals.

Next morning on the way from Meserani to Arusha I get my nails done …..
(to cover up the toenail fungus which hasn’t been discussed yet on the Undies thread….)







At Arusha we drop off the people going to Zanzibar and Kilimanjaro and the few of us left travel back to Nairobi (keeping Kilimanjaro on our right). If you google earth Meserani Tanzania, then Arusha, you’ll see some great piccies round Ngorongoro crater, and give you an idea where we were. Scroll out and you’ll see Nairobi to the north and Lake Victoria to the west. We actually did a large circle in the 2 weeks.




The Teddies were allowed to sit up at the front of the truck

You need to buy your meat pretty early in the day.











We arrived back at t he hotel in Nairobi about 3:30 pm. Frank and Marilyn were continuing on to look at gorillas, while we were flying out in a few hours to Bangkok then on to Hanoi two days later.
As the restaurant at the hotel is extremely ordinary, we had spied a good looking restaurant about 800 metres away at another hotel, so we wandered up there for an early farewell dinner.
Gee, writing about it now, it is all dreams and memories…… it was over all too soon, but another adventure was waiting for us in a couple of days time…..

Forgot to include this hibachi. This was in the markets at Tembo beach at Lake Victoria.
Mr Rags said I couldn't buy it, so I'm going to email Frank and ask him to ask Santa to get me a welding kit for Christmas.

tawn, you don't happen to own a welder do you?
