28/11: Fourteen falls
I got up this
morning and had some breakfast before going for a walk to look at the waterfalls
and around the hotel. Then I wanted to go to the fourteen falls, the receptionist
remembered and asked me before I had a change to say anything and she arranged transport
for me. Both to the falls and to Nairobi. It was quite incredible, though I ended
up paying way too much, the guide really ripped me off. But it seemed like it would
go to a good cause. So I let him. We started by going over in a boat to get closer
to the falls, it was kind of like a little island, without being an island. There
was so much trash it is crazy, I hope some of my money goes to cleaning this place
up, but I doubt it. Then we went up to the river above/before the falls to look
at it from that side and to get across. At first I thought we would just jump from
stone to stone lie I have tried before, but no. we had to get into the water as
well and the only reason I didn’t fall was that I had two strong guys holding my
hands to keep me steady. It was really fun, but would probably be more fun if there
had been less water. I am glad I did it before going home tomorrow. Afterwards we
drove to Nairobi where the driver dropped me, I then had lunch before Peter came
and took me to the guesthouse. I am still here just waiting to go to the airport
at 1 am. So excited!
