For New Year 2006 we were lucky enough to be able to go again to Kenya. This time to the usually very dry area of Samburu, however due to consistant rainfall over the last month it was quite green and lush. As a base for the whole week we had picked the Shaba Sarova Lodge on the banks of the Uaso Ny'ori river. Game in the neighbouring National Reserves of Buffalo Springs and Samburu was plentyfull but not so great in Shaba itself.
