Kenya Safari 4

We got up early for a long drive from the lakes in the Great Rift Valley south onto the plateau called Masai Mara. The first 2-3 hours the driving wasn't bad, then the road suddenly degenerated. It would have been much better had it not been paved because the frequent holes in the pavement were deeper and sharper than they would have been on an unpaved road. But we arrived in time for lunch, a short rest then our first game drive in Masai Mara. By now we were also looking forward to spending three nights in the same bed after four one-night stands.
