Today was the worst day, It was raining, and it was muddy and it was just the worst.We went to Mount Kenya, and as we were hiking up the popular Naro Moru route, we saw a cute little squirrel like animal, but it wasn't a squirrel, I can't remember what I was called, I think it was a tree hyrax, oh yeah it WAS called a tree hyrax. A tree hyrax is a small mammal that is distantly related to elephants and sea cows, They have 4-toed front feet, And 3-toed back feet with rounded nails, and rubbery soles that help them climb. Anyway this tree hyrax is evil, I tell you evil! Because, When we stopped to take a closer look, And I was taking a picture with my camera, I guess the flash blinded it or something, because as soon as I hit the button, the tree hyrax jumped off of the branch of the tree, right onto my face, so I wasted five minutes of my life screaming and crying trying to get that thing off! #worst day ever.
