Day 2

The next morning, we left from London and arrived at Nairobi(8), a city in Kenya. On our way to Nairobi, George told me a great story about children throwing human excrement to people if they don't get money from begging. Great way to start our trip. When I got out of the airport, the view of Nairobi was shocking to me. Instead of trees, plants, and animals, the city was full of paved roads, big buildings, advertising signs and many cars. Unfortunately, this city was becoming a new crime capital of Africa. A lot of robberies were going on because of poverty. Car-jacking was one of the severe problems. It's a quite violent event that can happen frequently. George has already made a reservation at a hotel. Exhausted from the airplane trip, I fell asleep right away not knowing what's going to happen next day.
