Ware and District Scouts
Lygean K2K
16th July 2000 to 8th August 2000

In 1990 a group of Venture Scouts and leaders from Hertfordshire travelled to Africa to take part in an aid project to help the people of Kenya.

Nearly ten years had passed and the Lygean Venture Scout Unit had the unique opportunity to return to Kenya, to re-live the experiences and to complete the building project started by Hertfordshire Scouts.

 We travelled onwards to the final stage of our trip, Mombasa. We took Maasai man with us because it was his day off and he wanted to go to Mombasa. On the way he showed us a Maasai village (where brightly coloured men jump very high).

 Having had two very active and exciting weeks (plus a late night in chameleon), most of us chose to take things easy and enjoy the poolside facilities on offer in our own hotel.

We had been promised a trip out to sea on a Dhow boat, with a 60-80% chance of seeing dolphins. In reality we would not see any dolphins because it was the wrong time of year.

 Having seen the reef using snorkels we decided to go for a better way to see it. A group of us made our way to the hotel next door to SCUBA school run by a strange bloke called Sven.
