Mt Longonot
Morning came way to soon for those climbing the mountain - breakfast was inhaled at
5am (muffins, mangos, pineapples, papayas, passion fruit and oranges) and we we about 20 of loaded the truck and headed out in the dark for Mt Longonot. Those who stayed in camp got to sleep in and have breakfast about 8am before taking down camp.
Meanwhile those climbing the mountain arrived at the gate, took their water bottles and headed up the mountain. We were lucky that the weather was good - there was clouds that kept the sunshine for beating down on us, and a nice cool breeze. Norbert was in the lead and I brought up the rear. Everyone made it to the rim and in good time too! About 11:30 am the last of the group made it back down the mountain to the truck and we headed back to meet the rest of the group at the town Suswa. It was a great hike - and most everyone was worn out!
We met up with the rest of the group by the MDP church in Suswa and headed out for the Masai Mara National Reserve. We arrived at Sekenani Gate around 4:30pm and headed straight for Gametrackers campsite. After unloading the truck most headed for the showers and then for a hot supper under the stars. Worship was by the fire and everyone turned in early - anxious for the early morning game drive on Thursday.
