Nairobi, Kenya


Eventually I've made it in Nairobi for my trip to Tanzania and the hike up mt. Kilimanjaro. The transfer from the airport to hotel was as exhausting as the flight was - we got caught in morning rush hour. It possibly took two hours to get to the hotel, sometimes not moving an inch for ten minutes. Development in the city seems to go as slow as the traffic and as dangerously. No road markings, traffic signs and even traffic lights. Taxis speed past amongst pedestrians and cyclists on the dusty and untarred hard shoulder. Now, I can't complain about any other bad traffic in London or any where else until I see worse.
