Day 238 Kenya 28/06/2011, Wildebeest camp Nairobi. Resting and a trip to the supermarket.

Not much to report today aside from the weather getting warmer. After a slow start to the day we wandered down to a very well stocked supermarket. We picked up most of the basics that we will need for the road ahead and grabbed some food for dinner. We are unsure whether cooking is allowed on the site, but we are going to give it a go anyway.

A trip to a petrol station caused some hilarity when I explained that I wanted the petrol for cooking with. Possibly they thought that we just tipped the petrol over the top of the food and set fire to it! Nevertheless I returned to the camp with two full fuel bottles, so we should be fine for a week or so.

Back at the camp we spent a bit of time feeding the resident tortoise cabbage leaves, on the chance that he/she would pose for a photo. It is amazing how it seemed to know when a camera was pointed at it and disappeared back into its shell!

A nice dinner and a few beers rounded off a lazy day. We are off to the Giraffe sanctuary tomorrow and then off to the famous Carnivore restaurant in the evening for a meat feast.
