This past weekend (Oct 5-Oct 7) I went with the photography club on the photography trip of the year. We left at around 8:30 in the morning. There were 7 students in total and two adults - Ms. Kerr and Ms. Bock (the club leader). We traveled to Naivasha and stayed at a private cabin that Ms. Bock had rented especially for us. Before heading to the cabin, we went for a walk on Crescent Island. It was a lot of fun. We saw a bunch of beautiful birds and lots of zebras and wildebeest, as well as several giraffes. There were quite a few baby wildebeests and they were beautiful little things. After a two hour walk in Crescent Island, we got back on the bus and went to an owl sanctuary run by Sarah Higgins. She had a wonderful collection of eagles and owls. I got quite a few beautiful shots there. After we finished up at the owl sanctuary we headed to Camp Carnelleys to reserve the boats for the next day and have lunch. After lunch, we drove to the cabin. Once we got there, we unpacked and got settled. That night we watched a movie - Easy A. The next morning we had to get up at the crack of dawn, get on the bus and drive to Carnelleys. We got right on the boats and headed out on the lake. I got some great shots of the fish eagles. After we got off the boats, we had breakfast at Carnelleys. When we got back to the cabin, I started feeling sick. I was in bed for the rest of the day with a flu. Around dinner time I got up and was feeling a bit better. I helped make dinner and clean up. After dinner we watched a movie (Death at a Funeral). The next morning we got up a bit later and got back on the bus and headed back to Nairobi. We got home at around 12:00 pm. It was a good trip.
