Owsome view of Lake
Lake Turkana is famous for its greenish-blue colors, We set up our tents and camped overnight in the camping site of Palm Shade Resort. It is located very close to the shores of Lake Turkana. We had spent our day there very nicely.

Best kept secret
You've just got to love this place. A lake that runs through the arid and semi arid lands in Kenya. Simply beautiful and a marvel of God's creation. Super potential in terms of investments. I stayed in a nearby manyatta to complete the true authentic local feeling. A must visit again.

Visiting the Cradle of Mankind
Nothing prepares you for the long journey to Northern Kenya. This is the most spectacular trip in terms of scenery, culture, natural beauty and to top it all, in the harsh semi-desert habitat, there is still life. The remoteness of the place makes you feel like you're far removed from life as we know it in the city- hussle, bussle, business...what a retreat!!! My trip included going all the way to Koobi Fora where great scientific discoveries have been made unmatched anywhere in the world relating to human evolution. This is definitely one of those trips you say you want to do "once in your life time" but the allure of the lake keeps calling me back everytime, I can never tire of going back time and again. Definitely worth the long road trip, you've got to experience it for yourself, words aren't enough to describe what you will feel.
