Since it was our day off, we split up into two groups – half of us went to the Kakamega rainforest and the other half to the crying stone and Lake Victoria to see the hippos.

In the rainforest we saw lots of monkeys, Isiukhu falls and a beautiful high point overlooking 270 square kilometres of untouched forest.

OMG this looks so amazing. Glad to hear you got a day off.
Such an amazing experience and a well deserved wee bit of rest for all you wonderful nurses.
