Good question! Isn´t it just reassuring to know that you have an emergency phone number to call in case something would happen on the extremely wet, slippery, and muddy roads? The road standard in the Nairobi park vary a lot, especially after a night of heavy raining. In less than thirty minutes from entering the park we had to dial the number they had given us at the gate. And we dialled, and dialled, and dialled... Probably the office hadn´t opened yet, but the idea was good. Finally we called our regional director Rune, who drove down to the gate and gave them our details, and after one and a half hours of chatting and coffee drinking and no game driving at all, we were pulled out from the mud. And what a relief that not even the rescue guy was able drive our car loose, without using the winch.
Anyway, so much for getting up early to be there at opening hours (6 am). But we all agreed that the trip had been good, except maybe cousin Åshild, who unfortunately wasn´t well at all that last day of hers in Kenya...
