Another Day, Another Shilling...Nairobi, Kenya

So, I'm doing my first link-up for Kelly's blog...hope you like it :-)

So, I woke up today to the coldest morning ever and luckily for me I don't have class on Monday...a perpetual 3 day weekend. I don't know exactly what to write, so I'll just give you some quick facts about Nairobi.

• We have a brand new KFC which opened a couple of months ago...I say this first because someone was supposed to take me to KFC this weekend, and someone didn't HINT! :-)

• We used to have the coolest form of transportation, called matatus, like a totally pimped out, 14-seater van with the works...big screen T.V, top of the line stereo system, screens in the windows, amazing artwork....but they were scrapped and now, you'd rather just use the bus...

• We have a pretty shot political system, but that's a whole other story...
• We have mostly gorgeous weather...
• The economic downturn is finally catching up to us, but that's a whole other story...
• They're are really pretty women here...
• It's pretty safe and calm, pretty much an ordinary city, contrary to what you see in movies...
• Obama's grandmother lives here
• Common language is English mixed in with Kiswahili

• I was born here
• People are mostly friendly, sometimes a little too friendly...
• It's really fun to live here...

• It's a great place to raise your kids...

• There are like 3 Churches in each one-block radius

• It's probably the only city in the world with a National Park 10 minutes from the Central Business District, that's our skyline in the background
