It's taken a while to get this blog started (sorry) but from now on we'll try to be more organised and not so tired that we just crash at the end of the day.
Our flight to Kenya was a long haul...it included two 9.5 hour flights, a stop over in Bangkok in the wee hours of the morning, delayed departures and arrival (finally) at our hotel exactly 24 hours after we left Australia. After waiting a few hours to check in, we were finally able to have a much needed shower and a two hour rest before heading out for the afternoon with the team (who had arrived the day before).
We were able to take it easy for our first day, as it was a Sunday, so we headed to the "Bomas of Kenya" for an amazing display of traditional Kenyan dance, song and even acrobatics. Afterwards we saw some typical Kenyan huts - which included separate huts for the first and second wives!
We had dinner at a great Indian restaurant in Nairobi (go figure) before heading back to the hotel for sleep and foot elevation (I have discovered that pregnancy+long flights=extremely swollen feet and ankles. I could hardly walk my feet were so fat). WARNING: The image below is not pretty!

Oh Sarah, your poor ankles! Try and keep them raised a bit on the way home (probably impossible). Mine always got like this during pregnancy.
