A Bucket List of Sorts Part 2

Besides the list of things we haven't seen, there is a few trips that I wouldn't mind repeating before our time here ends.  We have been on so many great adventures that its hard to narrow down to a few!

1. Kweisos House

Kweisos House is a small rental house up in the highlands near Kericho.  Its a great little weekend escape.  There you can ride horses, swim in the pool or just relax at the house.  We have been there twice and have loved it.  Both times we went with friends and enjoyed the quiet of the place.  

2. Nairobi sites

In general Josh and I avoid Nairobi.  Sure we enjoy the wide variety of stores and eating options but we really dislike the heavy traffic and commotion.  Besides the shopping and eating, Nairobi has a lot to offer in terms of attractions.  In the past I have been to the Elephant orphanage, Giraffe center, and Kitengella glass.  I would love to also visit the national park and the Kazuri bead factory.  Josh hasn't been able to see any of these, except for Kitengella, so I would love to spend a weekend touring the less hectic parts of the city.  Getting to Nairobi has become an expensive endeavor.  I think if we're able to do these we will have to plan it around a business trip...or two!   

3. The Mara

This one is self explanatory.  The mara is iconic Kenya and even after visiting twice (Josh 4 times), it doesn't really get old.  The last time we went was my favorite as we got to camp.  It was a different type of safari to have control over your own game drives as well as your meals and lodging.  It was more relaxing in a way to not be on a set schedule. If we make it back I'd love to camp again and test out our new tent!
