Safe in Nairobi!

After 35 hours of traveling, I have finally arrived safely in Nairobi! It was a huge relief to see a taxi driver from the hotel waiting for me when I exited the airport - I don't think that my delirious state could have handled the haggling!

The familiar noises and smells of the East African highway packed with trucks, motorcycles, bicycles, and men selling flashy memorabilia brought back many memories of my travels through Tanzania. I immediately felt strangely comfortable. For those of you who have been to East Africa - you can relate to the region's charm and allure that inevitably leaves you longing for more.

My taxi ride this morning...














One of my favorite things about Africa is the amazing fruit! Yellow and black passionfruit was served with breakfast this morning at my hotel. It is behind the pineapple and honeydew melon.
