Mon. 2nd July Meru National Park onto Mt Kenya Safari Club

Daybreak the colors changed in the sky once again not as vividly as the previous mornings but enough so that i felt compelled to break into the song “Morning Has Broken” We were going to have one more game drive in this magical place and it did not disappoint…drinking in the beautifully lush scenery we came upon the honeymooning lions a wonderful herd of Elephants , Giraffe and beautiful birdlife….we even came upon a mobile vet unit who were preparing to take samples from Giraffe (not to sure why) Back for breakfast and it was time to pack up say our goodbyes and head for the airstrip ….what a wonderful stay with warm hospitality and i survived all the stairs…!!!!!
As we climbed out of Meru NP and flew of Meru farmland very lush and Green …the Mountain was completely covered in shroud and no time at all we were landing ! Stepping out of the aircraft we were greeted by a chilly stiff breeze reminding us that we were in the mountains!!! A short drive past the wildlife sanctuary brought us to the Mt Kenya Safari Club….what memories it brings from days gone by and how it looks currently…i had alot of memorable moments here …now it has been taken of by ACCOR Hotels under Fairmont and there is a French GM who has been brought in to improve standards. I must say the culinary cuisine was wonderful
In the morning we head to the Maasai Mara
