Nairobi
I am out of the country for one day and the Commissioner resigns! I have arrived safely in Nairobi, and am staying at the Hilton. It was a good flight, and I was able to sleep most of the way. I flew from Terminal 5 and now they have it up and running, it is efficient. It was very tidy and modern looking. The business lounge had plenty of food, newspapers and coffee. It even had fresh bacon rolls. The flight was quite smooth apart from one part, where we hit turbulence, and might have been struck by lightening, and it dropped suddenly. I have three bags and they were all full. Only one has any clothes in them, the rest has pens, books and pencils. The big bag weighed 30k and that has hymn books, pens and pencils. I must have a few thousand of each. I will have plenty of room coming back.
It is warm here, but not too hot. I have had a free day so wandered around the City Centre and drank a few coffees and read the paper. It is not as good as The Times but it still informative.
I met a Police friend tonight and we had coffee. We have several conferences that we are involved in organising and so we were discussing them.
I am leaving for Nakuru tomorrow, and my driver is picking me up at 10. I could drive myself, but its very cheap to have a driver, and it also means a Kenyan has a job for 10 days.
