Referendum , Elections , major revamp in Constitution , Dual Citizenship , the works ……….. Kenya is ready for a Change !!!!
Be Safe than Sorry, take precautions and be at home.
And what couple of days its been. If I have not died laughing at Pannag's Dancing ( even Inder & Dad look better in comparison!! ) , it could be , Rinnie's acting skills & all the gossip of the locals , which would give Ekta Kapoor's serials a run for the money , or make Rinnie the next Shobha De , if she were to write a book on all the socials happenings here!!!! And , being taught the nitty gritty & tricks which will help us make some mullah , when we go to Casino Millionaire, Westgate!!! ;-)
Mom & I , have been on a fresh fruit Juice's and Avocado ( from the backyard tree , fresh as ever) eating Binge , as if it is going out of style!!! I can very well become a fruitarian!! J
To top that , it's been knocking back Tusker ( the local Beer) , and checking out the sweet White Wine!! And to be totally pampered by both Pannag & Rinnie , where Mom & I , are just eating , drinking , reading , watching movie's , sleeping anytime of the day …… ahhhhh … the perfect holiday!!!!!
Walking around the compound , going for short absolutely foresty green foliage scenic drives , Pannag's friends visiting , to moi learning a few key words of Swahili !!!
Angrez – Muzungu
Asians – Muindis
Locals – Wananchi
Similar sounding words which one had better be careful about!!:-)
Matata – Problem ( Hakuna Matata : No Problem )
Matatu – Public vehicles
Matiti – Boobs!
Counting of Votes has begun , and we venture out to see the city & what the snake park at the National Museum is all about. But, by the time we reach , its shut , so , we walk around, browse through the 2 curio shops , one of them has some real interesting stuff & methinks , I shall for sure buy something soon from here !
And then, it is Coffee time at the Savanna Café , overlooking the woodland , where I try the local coffee , Sasini , just right for my palate , loved it!
Its also trying out the local , angithi par sekka hua , Bhutta ( our very desi white corn & not the American sweet corn) & Cassava ( cousin of sweet potato). The fried & chips version of the Cassava is also neat !
It's typical Indian food from a place called , Chowpatty , which has the best Crisp Chilli Garlic Potato Fries!
This is Life!!!!!!!!
