Today we travelled from Nairobi to Arusha, Tanzania.
We rode by bus. I have to say they are trying very hard to pave the roads here, but they have a long way to go. The trip was about 300 km and was supposed to take a couple of hours. It took about 7.5 hours of bone crunching dirt and paved roads. I think I lost a couple of back molars on one or two so called detours. And when we returned to pavement, it wasn't really a big improvement.
But on the way we crossed the Great Rift Valley, stopped frequently for cows and goats in the road, and watched lots of brightly robed Maasai herding them.

good thing you both are not the cosmetic surgery types - you'd have whiplash as well. You travelled across Mexico over twenty-five years ago and had to make way for chickens and cows too.
