Thursday 10-16 The Adventure Continues


Jambo

Our last morning at Samburu then it is off to Lake Nakuru which in located in the heart of the Riff Valley. This is the home to thousands of pink Flamingos and a varitiy of other animals.
We arrived at the lodge after lunch in time to check in and get ready for an afternoon game drive.
We headed for the lake and the Flamingos while always keeping a lookout in the trees for the elusive Leopard but we were treated to something they had never seen in Nakuru, a large male Lion sleeping in a portion of the tree that had broken off and was on an angle to the ground.
We stayed with the lion for quite waiting for it to wake up and it finally did, boy was that a big lion, it walked down the tree limb and walked between our vehicles and onto another fallen tree. Very Cool!
We finally headed for the Flamingos after the Lion but the light was fading fast so we were going to have to come back in the morning.
