Twilight Zone Episode: Nairobi Forever

Or "Will we ever leave this town!". It wouldnt be so bad if i had my computer here and i could do some work. As it stands now the big rally everyone was worried about was cancelled. Embassy people still needs to meet again on Wednesday to assesss Kisumu. Sigh. The country is mostly calm now. Things wont change politicaly anytime soon either so they should let us go home or just go ahead and officially evacuate us.

It has been interesting to watch the growing pains of a new democracy first hand. I have learned alot about African politics.

Glad it's calming down, Alan, had to smile at your comments regarding African politics.
Elections on that Continent are always fraught with danger and they invariably recount the Votes till the right Party wins.
Be safe
