Well I have once again successfully crossed a border and have arrived back into Kenya. Borders aren't normally my favorite spot, especially in the dark and in the midst of a 17 hour bus ride that you were told would be 12. Anyhow, I'm here and all is well. I'm having fun hanging out with Sam and Amanda who are living here for a year.
Unfortunately, something finally made it into my stomach that shouldn't be there. Without going into details, I've been making several trips to the toilet recently. I hope the medicine from the chemist (aka pharmacist) helps.
So my dad is currently airborne and will be arriving in Nairobi tonight. We will get to hang out for a day or so before taking off to the Maasai Mara and seeing the amazing animals.
And finally today I have a feature I've been wanting to incorporate for a while, but never got around to it: "You know you're in a foreign country when..." So without further ado, you know you're in a foreign country when a newspaper caption reads "the price of an AK-47 has dropped from 10 cows in 1986 to 2 cows currently". Wow!
Ok, that's all for now, gotta run.
