We made it to Nairobi after one short flight to Detroit where we lost one bag, the two LONG flights 7+ hours to Amsterdam and then Nairobi. We were picked up at the airport with 3 vans and taken to the Country Lodge which is really nice. I'm feeling guilty I'm not suffering yet, but they say we should take a good long shower here since the showers in Naivasha are not as good. We'll head there tomorrow, stopping at the elephant orphanage around noon, then go on a hippo boat tour in the afternoon. Then we promise we will get to work! We went to the adjoining restaurant for a break before heading to bed. We're 9 hours ahead of Nebraska so there will be some jet lag involved. I stayed awake most of the trip (yes, I napped some) so I could sleep tonight since I don't often go to bed for the night at 2 pm! The pictures below are from the Nairobi airport and the hotel.

I see some of the pictures on the last 3 posts are out of order. I posted them from my cell phone and they didn't send in order. Operator error!
We had to use our key card 3 times and go through an additional guarded gate to get back into our hotel from the restaurant next door. I think we are safe!
