... its hard to take it all in right now. Maybe just ask me when I get home I might be able to make an attempt at summing it up for you. Rachel is going to do one more entry when we get home so our map has a nice completed look to it. She'll also throw in all the interesting statistics and facts from of our travels and we may even repost our top 20 favourite photos we took. <br><br>Finally just want to say thanks to everyone at home who has kept in touch and kept our ...

... fish, blue and yellow neon fish (the scientific name) and also what might have been a ray but was probably a skate. It's a shame the underwater camera we brought with us ran out of batteries before we got in the water!<br><br>After the trip we returned to the lodge for a lunch of the same stuff as the night before but with added crab. We managed to waddle home before getting a boda-boda (motorbike taxi) to take us to the door.<br><br>Hope you're all well<br><br>B&amp;A<br>

... resort (which felt like the longest walk EVER). So that was Mombasa &amp; Diani beach in a nutshell!!!! And it did make us go a little nutty. To be honest though I wouldn't have wanted to go through all that with anyone else than HM, we were peeing ourselves laughing pretty much the whole time. It was silly. The morning after the jelly fish expedition we flew from Mombasa to Nairobi and then on to Entebbe, Uganda. Made our way back to HM's apartment in Kampala and got ...

... mit Tee fuer 1,60 Euro) machte ich mich mit meiner neuen Kamera im Anschlag zum Fort Jesus auf. Das Fort Jesus ist eine imposante Burg direkt am alten Hafen der Stadt, die zwar im Grossen und Ganzen an die Sklavenburg in Cape Coast erinnert, wegen mangelnder Renovierung aber viel authentischer herueberkommt. Errichtet wurde sie 1593 von den Portugiesen und hat ein paar Mal den Besitzer gewechselt, bevor sie nach dem Oman an ...

Back then just a sensational beach -wich I guess it still is..In the mid seventies my parents took us here for hollidays. I think I went to Mombasa three times. I will get my Dad to scann some pictures. Pictures of my Mum ...

... Chai (tea) on the sidewalk, I interviewed a dozen locals on the street, all happily chewing away and asked them why it is they munched the stuff. The only answer I could get were "Everyone does it", "it's cool", "I don't get hungry", "Hakuna Matata", or just a blank stare. Most of them didn't know why they did it! The sleep was great, I got no flea bites, and we were awakened at 04:00 by the standard 'call to prayer' from a mosque across the road!

... into the new "cholera" warning due to lack of water. But the headliner of todays' paper is about the over 400 chickens found dead, dumped beside a deserted road in Nairobi. Within the week tests will be in whether it's due to Bird Flu. Or, one could chose to read the story about prisoners who escaped jail via hacksaw and haven't been found or the ongoing famine, or tribal clashes resulting in ...

... met <br> zang in het Swahili, juichen bij elk nieuw liedje. <br><br> Echt ontroerend, als je bedenkt dat ze de rest van het jaar een erg kaal <br> bestaan hebben met maar 1x per week vlees te eten, geen douches (dus helemaal <br> uit hun dak onder de douches bij het zwembad), en verder geen extraatjes. <br> Vooral de make-up deed het erg goed als cadeautje, die dag. <br> Ik heb die avond weer met Akke en haar dames gedineerd, was ...
