Kitale, Kerio Valley, Nakuru

We took a detour through the beautiful Kerio Valley on the way to Nakuru National Park.

We stopped for a couple hours at the Lelin Campground, which has a peaceful view of the valley. Ethan (the Israeli we met in Jinja) recommended the place to us. We wanted to spend the night but it was too early to stop for the day. Instead, we sipped Fantas, read, wrote, napped, and talked for a couple hours.

During our three-hour drive through the hot, dry valley, we passed many charcoal sellers and honey sellers. Many people flagged us down for a ride but we decided that picking them up was more trouble than we wanted.

We had a hard time finding a place to stay in Nakuru because we didn't like the loud, congested downtown where all the hotels are. We eventually took a room at Midland, outside downtown.
