Mnarani Beach Club

Our weekend of leisure - and the other side of Kenya - continued today with a visit to the Mnarani Beach Club. This resort is a 15 minute matatu ride from the main road and a world away from day to day Kenyan life. For 500KSH (about $7), we spent the day beside a beautiful pool that looked out over the ocean and enjoyed an all-you-can-eat lunch buffet. I read Out of Africa and reapplied my sunscreen every 15 minutes or so, in between sips of beer and the occasional dip in the pool.
