I have to say, Gordon was right, this trip ranges from the sublime to the ridiculous. We've arrived at Sarova Mara in the eastern bit of Masai Mara and it's quite something!

Saturday morning, it's stupid o'clock and I'm so tired I don't think I'm totally aware that we've just left Karibuni. Mary was crying when she gave me a hug...

It's friday, our last day in Ndhiwa. The day dedicated to finish all the bits and bobs we planned to do when we came here.

The Kenyans are truly lovely people and when we arrived at Ndhiwa all the kids where standing alongside the road waving to us, and of course we were waving back.

We're sitting here in the Pagoda with Rose from the women's group. Pauline is interviewing and Katie is recording.

Just before we left for Homa Bay, Gordon and I popped into town to find a seamstress to get some fabric to make a flag. Or, it's more like a banner.

Just wanted to say thanks to all my sponsors, the money you've donated is really going to make a difference for the people here in Ndhiwa.

Yesterday afternoon we drove and hour northbound to Homa Bay, were we stayed overnight at a hotel at the lakefront of Lake Victoria (Africa's biggest lake which can be seen from space).

We discussed this last night over a few tuskers and here's my choice:

1. Kaizers Orchestra - Salt og Pepper
2. Stevie Wonder - Superstition
3. Vamp og Kringkastingsorkesteret - Månemannen

After leaving Homa Bay and Lake Victoria our van picked up Jane (who's also my hairdresser) as she's the best haggler in the women's group, and drove out to Tabaki to get some cheap soap stone.
