Tea at the Tea Hotel in Kericho

Tea at the Tea Hotel in Kericho

We arrived in Kericho a couple of hours ago.  It's a community that basically revolves around these huge tea plantations.  It's absolutely beautiful ... imagine rolling hills of finely manicured tea fields as far as you can see.  We're camping at a place called the Tea Hotel - which is actually a really fancy place (swimming pool and all).  Word has it that it rains almst every day around 3 o'clock for maybe an hour, and that's it.  Sounds kind of like Camelot, no?  Following last weekend's example at Thompson's Falls Lodge, we figured if we could find fancy hotels that allow camping on their grounds - it makes for a really nice (kind of cushy) shabbat.  So, I think we have lucked out again.  Let's hope it doesn't rain this time!

I love the hillaryesque descriptions of the different modes of transport! Can't wait to see more pictures. By the way, how do you write on your blog while you are camping? Africa is much more advanced than I thought! Have fun and be safe!
love, dina
