Day 12 (Wed, 19 July ) - Nanyuki

After the previous nights dinner we felt that we owed it to the chef to give him/her another chance on the basis that no one can be that bad a cook. So we ordered English breakfasts. Bad mistake! The chef is clearly of a different calibre.

Bit of a rest day today so went off to the Internet cafe and updated the blog and responded to mails etc.

With deep misgivings we headed back to the hotel for lunch. As expected the tomato soup we ordered was insipid.

Met up with Joshua who drove us up to Mount Safari, a posh hotel that overlooks Mount Kenya. We got to the gates and were informed that just to enter the hotel grounds we would have to pay 600 shillings each (including the driver). Sarb's view on this was fairly simple ie. 'No way, hosay' so we drove on back to Nanyuki.

We walked around Nanyuki for abit and Sarb managed to buy a second hand book by trading in a book that Jo had already read. (Also saw the Kenya franchise of our favourite cafe in London). Got back to the hotel where we both lazed around reading and listening to the Ipod.

Both of us couldn't face another episode for what amounted to grevious bodily harm and so skipped dinner and went straight to bed.
