Kenya - Nairobi

Up well before the sun again (4.20am) this morning for a long drive, this time bound for Nairobi, Kenya and yet another African border crossing. Thankfully we were there early so there was no queue or hiccups.
Today was the final day of the second leg of our African adventure so farewells had to said. It was sad to lose some of our group, who had been with us from the start, but that is travel! We celebrated at the world famous Carnivore’s restaurant for our final meal. Carnivore’s is famous for it’s meat selection, and although we were hoping for a little more exotic game meat we still had an amazing meal. The meal consisted of soup for starters, salads, and an endless supply of meat delivered to the table on large metal skewers and sliced directly onto your plate. This all continued until the small flag in the middle of your table was lowered by the last person standing! The meat selection included lamb, beef, turkey, chicken, spare ribs... and then camel, crocodile, ostrich, ox testicles, and ox heart. 
We were delivered back to our lovely hotel by the hotel car very full but happy not only with our fabulous meal but also with the fact that we had 2 nights ahead of us in a hotel room with comfy beds and our own bathroom!
