I wanted to show someone a photo the other day on my web site and then I looked at my site and realized. I never finished creating it! I figured I better just get some of these photos up into Kodak Easyshare and quit wasting time. None of them should require you to log in if you click the link.

Wayne, sorry, but the site asks for my email address or mobile phone number. I'm not willing to hand either of these out, for obvious reasons. Hans-Georg -- No mail, please. |

Aaargh!
Which one did you try? None of them should ask for that. Let me know which one you tried and I will try to fix it.

Seems like it's been "Kenya (Coming Later)" for years now ... Bill, sorry for that. The scanner is gathering dust in front of my nose. But I'm getting closer. I think I'll be able to scan the photos towards the end of this year. Meanwhile please have a look at the fresh ones, like in http://www.michna.com/kenya2006/ , where some new ones have been added recently. Hans-Georg -- No mail, please. |

Hans-Georg Hans, Georg, thanks for sending the Kenya 2006 report with photos, great to read about your safari and I enjoyed the photos. How did you find Kenya this year, any particular changes in attitude etc? I know that we can`t know how things are from the newspapers, being there is always the best way. Pat -- Pat Anderson |

In other words, the number of people who won't vote for it is slowly rising. Otherwise many people in Kenya enjoy rapidly rising living standards. There is now a considerable middle class, people who work in factories or service industries around Nairobi and other major cities and towns, who have a house or a nice apartment and a car. I have no statistics, but the huge supermarkets that have sprung up in and around Nairobi and other towns speak for themselves. Uchumi has gone bankrupt, shops were closed. They may yet rise from the ashes, but we'll see what happens. I haven't followed the incident and am not up to date. The ATMs have become unreliable, unfortunately. That hits us travellers a little. I'm talking about the Barclays ATMs that give you money on the strength of the ec card that's ubiquitous in Europe. We could still use them, but we had to run around a few times. I saw several lodges expanding strongly. Tourism appears to go up, which is generally no surprise. Prices for tourists will surely go up too. This is bad for me, but it may be good for the wildlife reserves, so I won't complain. Generally Kenya seems stable, which is good. I saw many signs of stability and am under the impression that many Kenyans want the country to remain essentially as it is, of course with certain improvements.

Thank you for that Hans Georg, I find your comments to be very positive for Kenya especially your impression that the country seems stable, as for costs for tourists, Liz has said that she finds it`s expensive in Kenya and has to go elsewhere. I haven`t been for seven years but will go again, it still remains in my heart! I do keep in close touch with the news and am an active member of Mwananchi Yahoo group, started by Abdul Yakub who used to be on soc.culture,kenya you may recall. Greetings to you.
