Weather

A slight correction: it has actually been hotter in Bungoma. 28 was for Nairobi but I'm pretty sure it has been getting close to 35 in this area. And very few people have fridges or fans (i.e. cold drinks are only available at some stores and fans only in the nicest of restaurants). Air conditioning is unheard of.

The rains are overdue and the current drought is causing significant problems here in Kenya. For me it is nice, especially as we can still get around the dirt roads and don't get bogged down in mud and have to push the car out (though we still have to push the car to get it started - this is Africa after all).
