Sweetwaters

At the base of Mount Kenya, Sweetwaters is a private nature preserve (rather than a park) which was enclosed by fences and had quite a varied range of terrains to explore. As a preserve it also had a few enclosures of animals which were protected but not indigenous such as a troop of chimpanzees which Jane Goodall had setup a refuge for.
Because it was fenced and fully enclosed, Sweetwaters also felt a little more restrained than many of the parks we had visited, particularly with regards to big cats. We did have a nice encounter with some cheetahs on one drive, but they were pretty scarce throughout. That didn't stop us from seeing some nice elephants, go-away birds, crowned cranes, black rhinos (one of which Kathryn got to feed), hippos, bush babies, and an assortment of gazelles.
Believe it or not, by this point in the trip we had nearly had megafauna overload and it was getting increasingly difficult to amaze us with new displays of animals, but luckily some of the best views were to be had at the waterhole right in front of our tents (shown below). From here we could watch giraffes, rhinos, impala, waterbuck, zebras and warthogs come in for a drink and a mudbath without having to do all that arduous driving and standing we were used to.
