Mara and Elgon Dec 2020

[January 2020]  We spent our first week of break on a familly trip to Mt Elgon (which we had never been to). Then a few days at home for Christmas, unsual for us).  Then we spent the second week with friends doing a loop of the Mara and the Nguraman Escarpment.  The latter was an epic six days!
