| | Outside Nairobi There's a Throbbing Night Life | | 2007-08-20 02:49:00 | | In the years gone by, the city boasted of the Carnivore, L'ora Bleue, Lips and Club Boomerang. Carnivore has maintained its place today and has been joined by clubs such as Florida, Klub House, The Kengeles Chain, Palacina, and Casablanca, among others.But even as Nairobi has maintained its leadership position in entertainment terms, towns which in the past lacked attractive clubs are today teeming with modern clubs which could easily rival the more established joints in the city.

| | Flowers of Nairobi | | 2007-05-03 01:57:56 | | In a recent read article, I read about the tiny flowers of Nairobi.
In and around overpopulated Nairobi, one can spot the tiny purple and white flowers of the knotweed, or the bright yellow blooms of the blackjack weed or the elongated appendages of the devil's horsewhip.
But this is a story of a different kind of flower, which also comes in many colors but lacks the beauty of the many varieties discovered in nature by Sapieha. All over Nairobi, and all over Africa, are ugly artificial blooms that mar the landscape and that environmentalists want plucked up and removed.
These flowers are cheap, thin plastic bags that are tossed to the ground by consumers. This kind of litter has reached a critical mass in Kenya, clogging streams, choking animals and piling up into little mountains of disease.
These bags are different from the ones that Westerners carry their groceries in from the neighborhood supermarket; the Kenyan bags are so thin they barely hold a few mangoes without tearin | | By: The Flower Expert - Flowers Encyclopedia | | |

| | Nairobi! | | 2007-01-16 07:00:00 | | .JAMBO!a foto não é grande coisa, mas é o melhor que foi possível tirar do taxi em andamento.... como podem ver vamos ter borrasca pela certa. Pode ser que alivie a sauna... dizem-me que a temperatura é de 17 graus... mas estou sempre a suar em bica...voltando ao taxi, em andamento é como quem diz... nas estradas asfaltadas anda-se mais lateralmente a mudar de faixa do que em frente... o trânsito é caótico e as estradas estão cheias de povo a caminhar e a vender algo. O produto mais comum são uns triângulos refletores e laranjas. mas há que entrar na onda "sola-sola" (lento lento)nas estradas não asfaltadas (que não são poucas) ... ando a trabalhar para a hérnia... há aqui potencial para grandes campeões de rali!mal fôr tendo tempo, posto alguma foto decente....JAMBO!(photo shot in Nairobi - Kenya) | | By: solas na mesa - photo blog about portugal ( and mo | | |
