I was dreading going to Nairobi (or Nairobbery as it as often known). I had heard so many bad stories about the place that I was considering missing out Kenya altogether, but I'm pleased that I didn't. I did get ripped off once by a con artist (still kicking myself about that one) but generally, if you follow some basic safety rules, Nairobi is no worse than London.
Elephants playing at an elephant orphanage. They stay here for about 2 years and then pack their trunks and head to one of Kenya's national parks.
Even the animals find me irresistable.
