Great Rift Valley, Kenya

After leaving Nairobi, we climbed out of the city to the top of a mountain where the driver stopped for me to photograph the Great Rift Valley. If you enlarge the photos, you can see the highway running north (about centre of the photo) We descended into the valley and drove all along it, up mountains and down into valleys for six hours towards our destination in the far northern and very remote Kenyan mine

  7. Thanks for a nice shot. As a biology teacher, I am DYING to visit the Great Rift as it's very meaningful to me. I was lucky enough to spend time in South Africa,Zimbabwe, & Botswana several years ago and they were life changing experiences. Thanks for sharing!
