Ngong Hills

Today I finally hiked the Ngong Hills! Well... about 3/7 of the hills, but I will take it. I never realized what hard work hiking is. The book Out Of Africa starts with the line "I had a farm in Africa at the foot of the Ngong Hills..."  and for those of you who have seen the film the hills are seen several times as well. They are a really beautiful sight, and I have enjoyed gazing at them as I walk to work everyday since coming to Kenya.  I will post a picture of the hills themselves soon, but until then here is the view from the top.
