 At the end of my last day in Jerusalem, I went in the closed Mahane Yehuda Market (aka The Shuk) to see the graffitis painted on the closed doors.

Maasai Mara, Kenya 3-day tour

Image
Day 1: Nairobi - Masai Mara I was picked up from Nairobi CBD in the morning and then joined the group of 7 to drive to Masai Mara through The Great African Rift Valley escarpment through Masai Town Narok. We arrived at the camp after 6-hr drive for lunch and checked in at the camp and rest. We had an Afternoon game drive as from 4:30– 6:30 through the park and saw  lions, Cheetahs, Buffalo, giraffes, hyenas, wildebeests, zebras, gazelles, antelopes, plus other animals. After dinner, we had a bon fire at  Lenchada budget camp Masai Mara. I booked this tour via a trusted friend’s referral. It costed $380 for single occupancy, and $340 for double occupancy. If you have time to book the tour after arriving in Nairobi, you can save $40. It is rather hard to drive 4x4 in the park and rental cars are expensive, so I recommend taking the tour. Day 2: Masai Mara - Mara River I worked up 5:30 am, had Breakfast by 6 am and left for a full day game drive with packed lunch. We had a Compre...

Bagamoyo

 Day 6 - Bagamoyo We headed out 5:30 am this morning as we journeyed south to our overnight stop in the coastal town of Bagamoyo. Formerly a centre point of the East African slave trade, Bagamoyo lies just north of the port of Dar es Salaam and is a perfect launching point for our upcoming Zanzibar Excursion. While today is primarily a travel day, we traveled via many small towns and mountains. Road travel in Africa is an experience in itself and the bustling markets, villages and scenic backdrops that line the routes give a window into the lifestyle of rural Africa. When our truck passed via the town, I got a glimpse of entrance portals of the homes which display intricate carvings with Arabic influence. View the aging German buildings. It was almost 6 pm when we arrived, so I did not check out the town. The coast is much more hot and humid, yet it is fall so the temperature cools down to 60sf (still ok to sleep in a tent). The place we stayed tonight was classy/rusty, and they ha...
