Hereby an update from Arba Minch, Ethiopia!

At the end, we did both Lake Turkana AND Marsabit – Moyale. We didn't feel comfortable with the whole week off-road (Turkana) after all and were also advised by a security expert that the border region Ethiopia-Kenya was currently instable. Besides, the security and conditions of the Marsabit-Moyale should be allright when we took off (and they were indeed!!).
We are really satisfied with the choices we made, although we met quite some people coming from Ethiopia into Kenya who found the Turkana route to be perfectly fine.
So, what exactly did we do?
We decided to visit Lake Turkana via a loop (cause we heard great stories about the lake) from Laisamis to Marsabit. Really stunning to see the lake and also impressive to see the tribal people and their way of life.The roads were mostly good sandy tracks and nice driving, apart from quite some (dry) riverbed crossings between Laisamis and South Horr and a tough vulcanic rocks-track the last 50km before Marsabit. NB: This loop seems to be only possible in the dry season!!
The route we took:
Day 1: Nairobi – Nanyuki (private camp)
Day 2: Nanyuki - Laisamis (camped at the Catholic Mission of Father Isaiah)
Day 3: Laisamis – South Horr (camped at the Samburu camp)
Day 4: South Horr - Loyangalani (Palm Shades camp)
Day 5: Loyangalani – Chalbi desert track – Marsabit (Henry’s Camp)
Day 6: Marsabit – Moyale (Koket on Ethiopian side), it took us 7,5 hours.
We found all the camps mentioned really nice.

If any additional info needed, feel free to ask /send me a PM!

Sirakor, I think we already met each other on the road between Loyangalani and South Horr! We were the Dutchies in the beige Landcruiser
Wazungu, too bad... not in Nairobi anymore. Enjoy the rest of our trip!
