Since we arrived at Kenya’s coast, we’ve been enjoying the warm Indian Ocean at Diani Beach, close to a town called Ukunda in the Southeast of the country. In 2001, Domi already spent a summer vacation here for three weeks.
Tomorrow we’ll pass Mombasa and drive to Kajire Village to visit our good old friend, Micah Mbogho Kitatu. After that we’re going to head further inland to Nairobi.

pls can i take apicture with you guys and herbie? 🙂 for old time sake?:) it wud be a adream come true. waiting for ur favorable repy:)
Yeah, sure! Where are you located? Maybe we’re passing your place…
volkswagens are best when it comes to unsurfaced roads!:) i know herbie can do it. my uncle said volkswegen are like tractors they can pass anywhere 🙂
Yeah, that’s right :)!
BUT don’t forget, our “tractor” is pulling this “anchor” ;)…
So many of your pictures from Africa are spectacular, and breathtaking. Wish I was there with you guys. So instead, I will simply have to spend some time daydreaming. 🙂 What country will you be going to next, after Kenya?
Hey Jay!
After Kenya it will be Ethiopia – time to wear something more covering for me ;)….
Best regards,
Zainab
Will you be traveling anywhere near Axum (Aksum) in northern Ethiopia, near the border with Eritrea?
No, we’ll cross over to Sudan heading towards Khartoum and further up to Lake Nasser in order to get to Egypt. The worst part in East Africa will hit us here in Kenya – the so-called “Trans-East-African-Highway” – 500 km of unpaved road towards Ethiopia. But Herbie will hopefully triumph again 😉
That first photo can be used as a poster ad for a tropical island (or beach holiday resort):-)
