Getting to the island

... Please read previous post first...


So the road ends. For real this time.

We are greeted with some bottled water and comfy seats in some shade. By the way, it's hot and humid on the coast, especially compared to Eldoret at 7,000'+ elevation.

We are told to wait. For the tractor.

You see, when the tide is low, a tractor pulling a passenger rig takes you to and from the island. When the tide is high, a boat does the work.

The island is only a few hundred feet from the mainland. There's a route laid out for the tractor. So we went to the island, not by boat, not by plane, not over a bridge, but by tractor. Another first.
