July 11, Leisure Camp
We rose early for a 6:30 breakfast followed by a 7:00 departure. We drove through the park for our final time. We were rewarded by both a rhino and a group of seven cheetah. What a wonderful ending to our safari.
We faced our 5 ½ hour drive to Nairobi bravely. On the way we met one of my friends and Brother, Brother Francis Njoroge, who runs a home for street children in Nakuru. He and I rushed ahead to arrange lunch. We found a really good pizza place on the way to the airport. We had our drivers join us and were able to thank them for the wonderful job they had done.
Getting out of the Nairobi airport took nearly as long as it did to get in, go figure. But we departed Kenya shortly after 6:00, arriving in Addis about 8:00. It is a short flight, so service is pretty brisk! The stewardesses didn’t quite through the trays at us, but that description would not be far off. By the time we finished our Visa forms and collected all the luggage, again, worked our way through customs and packed the awaiting bus…it was 10:00. Brother Kassu and Johannes met us at the airport.
It was 12:30 by the time we arrived in Meki. We are tired, but all are well.
