Crossing the border

Today we traveled from Kisumu to Tarime, a district just across the Kenyan border in northern Tanzania.

We stopped on the way for lunch, and also at a soap stone store where we saw the products being made, starting from the natural stones to the finished products. We all managed to find treasures to take home. When we reached the border, we went through immigration with no difficulties. Tarime was a short drive from the border.

In the middle of the village behind white walls with an iron gate, was our next home for two nights, The Goldland Hotel. We sat outside for dinner and enjoyed the nicely landscaped patio.
