Day 16 - Meatless Monday

The Massacre of Meatless Mondays:

Tonight we ate at the Carnivore restaurant for our last formal dinner
as a group. What‚ is on the menu you ask? Here‚are a few of the options:
leg of lamb, leg of beef, leg of camel, crocodile tail, ox balls, ox
vegetarians and vegans there is salad as an alternative option. This
was the high point of my day. Especially since we started driving at
seven a.m. in the morning and did not eat much in the course of the
day except snacks and water, on our eight hour bus ride from Mombasa
to Nairobi. Oh yeah that was one of the other hilarities of this
trip, no traveling by air or land or sea will ever be as tedious as
the bus rides here were, but that‚It's alright, it was part of the
experience as they say. Finishing our trip with the carnivore
restaurant was very good. About five of us brave souls tried the ox
balls, myself included. They were for me, not so flavorful, and it
was not the idea that threw me off, it was actually the flavor, but
now I know. However the camel, ostrich, and crocodile tail hit the
spot. And so after finishing one all you can eat round of salad and
exotic meats, and dessert and coffee, my body is happy and in a food
coma, and it is becoming increasingly important that I find a place to
fall into a deep hibernation. Goodnight and so ‚long.
