Just before the exams we usually do a rehearsal. My Christmas rehearsal was a trip to Marigat in Baringo. It's 256km from Nairobi.
I last took that route about two decades ago, when the Lake Bogoria geysers were active and spectacular. Are they still there? I never went beyond Marigat.
Beyond Kabarak, the vegetation changes and the landscape too. It becomes flatter, drier and less populated. Towns with interesting names interrupt the Nakuru-Sigor road. One small town is NATO. Is that a local name?
