Day 3: Potholes and intoxicating drivers

This is the road that is unlike the common term, “the road less traveled.” The road from the city of Nairobi into Nanyuki town is not one for the twenty-one-year-old suburban  citroen driver. My second time on the Kenyan roads was a four hour drive fueled with excitement, fear and a strong sense of adventure. Between dodging Matatus, checking all my mirrors and trying to catch up to a heavy duty Toyota Hilux, I was also trying to absorb the happiness between Chelsey and I as we set off into a new territory. The drive was filled with laughter, sketching break pads and honking.  We arrived in Nanyki with sore bums, full bladders and exercised cheeks.
