ROAD TRIP TO THE RANGES.

A road trip from Nairobi to Laikipia is one heck of an adventure! The stretch begins to electrify once in Kijabe.You will easily notice the instant reaction of passengers on the heavily condensed humid ambiance that augments between Lari and Kijabe, and that which assumes the grey-like appearance of the clouds. More often than not, it is more apparent how some passengers begin to pull hoods over their heads while others gather themselves together and wrap their upper bodies with shukas, especially those from Masai land which come in a combination of three different colours in one.
Along the way your excitement will glow of the way nature manifests itself. In an instant your attention will be attracted and your feelings aroused especially if you are an animal fanatic once in Naivasha. It is fascinating grassland with great diversity and synergism.
Several cohorts of zebras graze on the fibrous grass, giraffes crop the trees, herd of antelopes feed on the grass while others browse on the bushes and on rare occasions warthogs and other browsers, are grazing in the voluminous tropical grasslands with some scattered segments of bushes and thickets, trees and shrubs along with a rich variety of species of rare bird like the lilac-breasted roller, saddle-billed stork, green sandpiper, jacana, white fronted bee-eater, the list is endless, which colours the quiet atmosphere with their sweet melodies. Children get so much excited to see this. Occasionally you will notice how they shift from one window to the next in an attempt to see this wide species of scenic creatures, they will then jump up and down raptured, kids will always be kids! Sadly, the picturesque view fades away along the diversion to Gilgil.
Something worth noticing on the way to Gilgil was how the road deteriorated, dropping into the cool and damp forest. The view is exceptionally sightly. It has never crossed my mind that, I would ever come across an environment like this anywhere else, apart from the drive INS, in the flush Karen estates. It was so arousing to gaze at the black tarmac stretch, sandwiched between well-trimmed light green grass cover, on a one-meter width from both edges of the road. In addition, was the absolutely still, thick growth of trees, ascending on the mountainous region, giving the illusion of an inclined terrain.
In a bit,i thought of this, Imagine residing within the forest, in a well-structured bungalow and withdrawing totally from the outside world, only coming out on the weekends to do your shopping in malls and furthermore to horse race in the small ranch along the highway. Fantastic, is it?
From here, the excitement becomes so minimal as the beautiful nature gradually decreases and development of human population, though very sparse starts encroaching as well as evident farming activities in the small slots divided from the large farms. It takes almost an hour to reach to Nyahururu town where everyone alights and heads to their specific destination. I am forced to board another matatu that drives me out of Nyandarua County to Laikipia County at only 50 shillings.It is already one o’clock and I feel hungry. I am confused, I don’t know what to eat but anyway I decide on chips and a bottle of soda. I could smell the aroma of chips from a distant but I didn’t know from where specifically.I walk, uncertain but finally get the chips base and quickly finish the junkies.
Luckily I get a matatu outside the hotel, board and in a few minutes am In Laikipia. The excitement is again revived by the beautiful view of the eye-watering Aberdare ranges clearly from within Laikipia University. It is significantly huge and spectacularly beautiful.
