Kenya Day One

Our plane trip to Kenya had a four hour layover in Amsterdam. Not enough time to leave the airport but thankfully enough time to explore the airport shopping. These are wooden tulips in the first picture. And amazing live flowers in the second. 

 

Also they had this tea shop where you could sit in replica Delft cups to sip your tea. So cool! 

We got to Nairobi about 10pm at night and by the time we got to our hotel after getting luggage, going thru customs and changing money it was midnight. Then on Friday we spent about seven hours in a small bus driving into the mountains to Maua, which will be our base for the next four days. Lots of interesting sights to see along the way. Yes that is a couch on the back of a moped. We saw lots of cows, goats and sheep; we weren’t fast enough to get pictures of the group of baboons sitting on the side of the road.
