So I’m in Nairobi right now sitting at a table under an awning. It’s actually very pleasant here and really not what I was expecting. That’s not exactly true, there have been many things here in Kenya that have lived up to what I was told to expect. First was the immigration line. I don’t know how, but out of a plane of maybe 400 or 500 people that all went through customs, I could end up being the last person… literally the last. I couldn’t believe it then, and now that I write it, I still can’t believe it… only now I have a smile on my face. The room was packed, and then an hour an a half later it was just me and 6 immigration officials. ☺

I’ve talked to the owner of the hostel about setting up a few things to do today, and it looks like if everything goes as planned I’ll be good to go in a little bit. I don’t know about the prices so that will be the determining factor on my itinerary. Right now I’m planning on the Nairobi National Park, National Museum, a giraffe park and a rino park… and there is one other that I can’t remember the name. We’ll see if everything turns out. The guy just showed up with the prices and they are high, but not super high so I told him that I’d do it. I’m only going to be in Nairobi for two days so I don’t want any regrets if I hear that I missed out on one of the things on the list.
