Obama Mania

When Obama won the elections i could not feel a sense of joy that rushed through my heart. There was jubilation everywhere. We in Kenya were proud to have some sort of connection the President Elect Obama. In fact i remember on the date of the announcement most of my friends were debating over weather to rush drop their kids in school and come back home to watch the elections or just forget about the school and work and just watch the election results. Well some chose to watch while others went to work but you can be sure many were connected to online news sites awaiting the first announcement. I am indeed very proud to be Kenya. Interestingly that night it rained all over not just a light shower but a heavy down power that caught many unwares and it has been raining since then could it have been a blessing or what.

Also out of interest i came across this Kogelo Safaris just incase you might consider taking a tour.
just a thought.
