November 8 2005 - Nairobi

The David Sheldrick Trust is a foundation set up by the wife of a naturalist famous for his work at Tsavo and Nairobi National Parks. The trust cares for orphaned rhinos and elephants until they are old and healthy enough to be released.
They do really good work here - are careful not to allows any elephants to get too attached to any one handler, as the elephant would mbe very upset to be separated from someone considered family.
I spend the rest of the day in bed, as my stomach has been upset by somethign.. water?
