It has come to that time of year, travel time. I decided that for the first time in my life it was off to an African country. And as far as I’ve heard I’ve chosen a whopper. Kenya is a stunning country and I recently discovered they have incredible islands too. One of which is Lamu (in the Lamu archipelago).
So that is where I am off to for two weeks. No internet, no cellphones, no technology. Nothing. I cannot wait.
See you all on the other side of 2008 and beginning of 2009. Have an incredible time over the holidays.

This is SA Rocks, I know. But How can anyone stand by and idly watch the absolute insanity taking place in Kenya?
There is nothing much that we can do here in SA other than talk about it and create awareness so that’s what I am doing.
You need to head over to CNN and have a look at this video. Protesters are fired on with tear gas for no apparent reason. A CNN journalist (Zaine Verjee) gets shot in the back with tear gas and they just keep filming.

Things have gotten out of hand.
Get to Ushidi for more detailed information on what is happening in Kenya. This cannot still be happening, this sort of thing needs to be stamped out.
Shocking stuff.
