Weekend out after the week’s hustle and bustle.

What do you do after a busy week? Just SLEEP! How would you relax after a busy week? Would you spend it with loved ones or just alone by yourself? What activities are you going to do to relax your mind and body from gossiping and jumping whenever the BlackBerry buzzes in the office?   Somehow, we cannot escape all the distraction and stress at work but we can try a weekend out to refresh up our mind from; Annoying co-workers, Ringing telephones, Email notifications and Interrupted meals.
It will not take long for you to forget all this and most of all the traffic jams!
Where to go!
Kenya is a beautiful country with beautiful gardens, scenery and wildlife and many other activities. Considering the distance, you don’t need to focus on driving a long way. For instance Naivasha is one of the best places to visit during short weekend with a distance approximate 75kms.
Activities!
You can take a boat ride on the lake to see hippos and beautiful birds, go for a walk among zebras and giraffe at Crescent Island, ride horses among wildebeest and gazelle at the sanctuary farm or in hotels and camps, ride bicycle among wildlife and dramatic scenery at the hells gate National park and many other activities. You can never run out of things to do including doing nothing at all.
EATING OUT-ROSTED MEAT POPULARLY KNOWN AS (nyama choma).
Kenya is abundant of natural produce; combine with the rich variety of traditional food.
Kenyans are also formidable meat eaters. One of the best known Kenyan specialties is NYAMA CHOMA (rosted meat) this is usually slow-rosted over an open charcoal fire and served with a mixture of greens and Ugali. Ugali is the most loved staple food in Kenya. Essentially a stiff porridge of maize flour.
This can be made possible without breaking the bank. You can go out on weekends with friends or family at a pocket friendly price.
Drinks!
Meals are generally washed down with the local beer for those interested in the local beverages. Sodas are also widely available and it’s difficult to miss the saturation of advertisements for Sodas. Beers are offered in most locations. Tusker well know as (my beer, my country, stand tall..) and white cup including others are readily available with a reasonable prices. Rural bars also serve the local beers known as muratina but drink this at your own risk. Coffee and tea (chai) are also excellent and properly made. But you have to insist on ‘Turungi’ if you want tea without milk. Most coffee lovers are familiar with the quality of Kenyan coffee.
No matter what your taste in food, music, visual and performing arts, sightseeing and outdoor activities, the best of the best is found in up country, at any hour of the day or night.
