Yesterday didn't happen. Honestly. I got to the hotel, checked in, got to my hotel room, and spent virtually all day and night asleep.

I've honestly never felt quite so rotten and tired as I did yesterday.

Then late on in the afternoon I had a phone call from reception to say that a safari trip was going the next morning, would I like to go. Sure, I said. It's a 7am start, they said. Urgh, I thought. Last thing I need... another early night. But I was up at 6am, had breakfast, and ready for the trip to the Nairobi Safari Park.

We got to the safari park not long after 7:30, and then had a bit of a wait whilst the people at the gate seemingly did nothing. Another group ahead of us had been waiting for an hour to go in, and there was a lot of arm waving and shouting. We managed to still get in ahead of them.

The park is 100km² just outside Nairboi. Amazingly close to Nairobi, actually. The first animals we saw were storks in the trees; these actually nest in trees all over central Nairobi, not just the park.
