There really isn't a lot I can say about the Mara, it was incredible. We set off from Njoro at about 8.30am, half of the journey was on some extremely bumpy roads, boy my butt hurt. We eventually got to the Mara at about 2pm. Seen some Hyena and what I thought were Lions but they where to far away to tell. We got to where we where staying and unpacked the kit out of the land rover. At 4pm Myself, Bonn, Nic and Jo went on a walking safari for a couple of hours, it was amazing, Valentines day and im walking in the Mara with my girlfriend. Didn't see to much on the walk but it was fun anyway. After the walk we all just talk about the day ahead while we had a drink and something to eat.
15,02,2000. Got up early and we all went on a game drive at about 7am, it was awesome, I saw my first Lion and boy are they big. We saw a lot on the drive, lots of Lions, Elephants, Hippo's , Buffalo, Wilder beast, Zebra, Topi, Eland to name but a few. In fact throughout my time in the Mara the only thing I didn't see where Cheetahs and Leopards. We left the Mara on 16,02,2000 at about 11am, heading for Nairobi.
