5/8/05. Eldoret, near Uganda border.

New Naiberi River Campsite has the most astounding bar so far. It won't be finished for a few months, but it's already a jaw-dropper. 

1. It's huge. 

2. There's a 200-metre cave-like tunnel that leads to it. 

3. There's a river running through the middle. 

4. It's really huge. 

5. Did I let on about the size of the thing?

Ash allows me to spend as much money as I like in his bar 

I spend the day in the rather nice town sorting out my water-in-fuel-tank issue. Once again the moto is back to peak performance and running like a particularly saucy dream, perhaps involving Maria Whittaker, half a kilo of I Can't Believe It's Not Even Margarine, and an open-minded porpoise.

East Africa is shaping up to be a gigantic playground compared to the West. Proper facilities! Sensible weather! Africa's finest beer! (Tusker, according to American Men's Journal magazine). ---
