Just as I turn 22 years old today me and the rest of the team are starting to settle into Nakuru. We are starting to get to know the area and JKUAT campus. We have also met some great people here, including our driver Steve who we went on an adventure with to see Menengai Crater yesterday. Steve is THE MAN!
The Crater is a fantastic place, and we were lucky to see it just as the Crater is starting to be developed in order to harness the thermal energy buried beneath the rock. The view from the top of the crater is breath taking to see, the lush valley of the Rift Valley, the mountains in the distance, and the many lakes scattered throughout the landscape. We bargained hard on top of the crater with the shopkeepers, and this time, we walked away with (what we think) was a fair deal. This bargaining will sure take some practice.
But for now we are off for some African birthday adventures!
