Back in Africa

Thursday, July 31st, 2008

Well the lack of stories of late is only an indicaton of how much fun we were having in Thailand. I have lots to say, but no time right now. Arrived back to Nairobi safely this week. A little culture shock and shock in general going from the most modern place I have visited (Bangkok) to Nairobi, but all is well. Indonesia is my next adventure ending with kayak trip in Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia. Should get started in late September or so. USA visa process for Pamela now started. First adventure was the online form which led to a first interview date not until September 15th. Yikes! Especially since it takes forty days to process. Disappointing, but I knew this dealing with Big Bro would be a test of patience.. something I lack.

Violent Nations

Sunday, May 25th, 2008

I was listening to the TV in the background when they said “foreigners were being attacked in South Africa”. I did a triple flip with the fear that went through me. “Foreigners”, “attacked”, “Africa” was the message and that’s me!!! Well, of course, once the real message about a faraway country and African foreigners I calmed down. No surprise to me that South Africa is having problems. A country with so much wealth and so much poverty going through economic difficulties and cultural and economic growing pains… is it really a wonder that people snap? The situation there is not so unlike the situation here in Kenya and probably similar to Nigeria. Kenya has enough wealth and resources and land except so much of it is concentrated in too few hands. The country is definitely headed in the right direction, but there are too many being left behind. Under-educated, under-employed, fatherless young men and the way they protest their predicament is explosive. Isn’t this the basic ingredient in every riot? All they need is someone to blame for their situation in life and the mob mentality takes over.

My Cameroon Hero
