On Sunday the group went to a Masai Lodge and Kitengela Glass Factory. The Masai Lodge was a taste of luxury, most likely a typical fancy resort but it was nice to lounge around for a day. However before lounging we went on a little hike to get to the kitengela glass factory. Outdoorsy me was extremely excited for this, but i spoke to soon because at one part of the hike you have to kind of scale a wall using vines and nitches in the rock and what do you know I fell in the river right below. Its funny too because right before it was my turn i asked Victor "How many people fall in there" and he repled "none, you will." and what do you know. I do. So embarassed, shamed me had to continue the hike soaking wet. But you know Africa in no time i was dry and ready to cross the next challenging part of the hike a wire suspension bridge. This is a really neat bridge but quite scary since it is made out of wires and very shaky. Only 5 people at a time can go across but guess what i managed to that without falling! The destination was the glass factory and extremely cool place that was startedby a german lady 30 years ago. Very artsy, the ideal place to live. After that back over the bridge to the lodge for a very fun day of swimming.

This reminds me of some of the trips we took in Europe, where suddenly out of no where there was some fantastic castle or church.
