Martin writes... On the
shores of Lake Naivasha, amidst the new flower growing boom, is the home
of the late George & Joy Adamson. Today, this home has become the
foundation for the 'Born Free' conservation fund and focuses on lake
ecology and environmental awareness programs.
Elsamere provides a very
good insight into the life that the Adamson's lived and also boasts many
outstanding original paintings by Joy Adamson. Joy was a highly acclaimed
painter and received many awards in recognition of her work.

Our evening
was spent at the nearby popular Fisherman's Camp on Lake Naivasha. It is a
huge campsite and often busy on weekends - thankfully we were the only
campers for the night. Very peaceful and tranquil ... listening to
the numerous birdlife.
