We had the fun and exciting opportunity to take a Saturday trip to Sipi Falls, on the slopes of Mount Elgon for hiking. We went with my friend Kathleen, Eric who is working in Mbale, and Trent who is spending a few months working in Kaberamaido with the agricultural programs of our partner organization KMDP.
It was a very
beautiful location and we enjoyed just looking out over the waterfall and
plains below.
And we had a nice dinner by lantern light.

The hike itself was also great, but we sure felt touristy. We had to go with a guide and they gave us all walking sticks, which although very helpful, made us feel like we REALLY stuck out! At the beginning of a hike, there was a very friendly dog that wanted to come with us.
This is SO great! Ben and I hiked Mt. Elgon on our way to Pokot. Our guide was actually a young lady that was a member of the Kenyan Forest Guard (part of the militia). While there we also met a multi-national group of geologists that were conducting a survey of the cave system there. Thanks for bringing back such great memories. Blessings to you guys!
