Sunday - March 21

It rained all night and many woke up to wet mattresses and sleeping bags (some of us had nice toasty dry ones....SMILE) We warmed up by the hot coals from the fire during the night, had worship and then enjoyed a breakfast of fresh fruits, cereal, boiled eggs and hot drinks.

After we packed everything up we headed back through the Mara to Sarova - a fantastic lodge where the hospitality is heavenly! We pulled in just before lunch and were greeted by the staff handing out cool wet wash clothes with eucalyptus oil on them, and a cold glass of fresh passion fruit juice. Everyone was briefed on their room assignments, and what was available at Sarova then headed for lunch and an afternoon of sunbathing, swimming, ping pong, sleep, reading, massages, and hot showers.

There was an optional game drive for those who wanted it at 4pm and the other truck took Marlin Meharry to the airport strip at Keekerok (in the game reserve) Marlin had to head back early to the US to start back to work on Monday.

Supper found everyone rested up and relaxed - as we enjoyed a candlelight meal and headed out to bed (our rooms were ready - with beds turned back and hot water bottles tucked inside to keep our toes toasty warm)

Sleep came quickly for most - Sarova was a well earned treat! There is truly no better hospitality found in Kenya - then at Sarova Mara Lodge!

Good night all!
