Quiet Day at Lake Bogoria

ak. Sundays are quiet in Kenya as most people go to church and don't work, so we made a quick day trip to Lake Bogoria National Reserve. Approximately 2.5 hours north of Nakuru is this non-fenced reserve, which is know for its famous geyzers. It is also host to a variety of wildlife, including flamingoes, ostriches, impalas, wart-hogs, hyenas and a herd of elephants that migrate over the park's surrounding mountains two or three times per year. En route, we also had several encounters with the indigenous Pokot and Tugen residents of the area, many of which still reside in traditional Kenyan huts.
