Day 7: Marsabit Isiolo. Day 7: Marsabit Isiolo. April 29, 2012. 9AM breakfast was served in Marsabit. The weight of the journey was already being felt and I had my eye allergy (dust) to show while others had. Marks We were 422 km from Nairobi and 222 km from our day’s destination, Isiolo. Marsabit is very green and it had rained the previous night. The soil is red and fertile. The morning had heavy cloud cover. We were off to Isiolo, driving through patches of dry, dusty land.

Archive for July, 2012. July 11, 2012. Of July 2012 was a perfect day to head out of Nairobi for some hiking. My recent hike was Ngong Hills. Which was a total success. After preparing for Mt.

Day 6: Koobi Fora Marsabit. Day 6: Koobi Fora Marsabit. April 28, 2012. Early Saturday morning, after the night spent in laughter under the display of billions of stars, we prepared for yet another day-long drive. It’s a drive through dry and arid areas. Through Chalbi and Koronia deserts. Hot, dusty, sandy and bumpy conditions. A drive back to Kenya as most of the locals of Northern Kenya call it. May, and this will be one of the best points where tourists alike will set base to have a perfect view.
