- Very green rolling hills (a reminder of the English countryside).
- Rain in the evenings and hot/muggy during the day. Cold at night.
- Carrots, honey, cabbages and tomatoes being sold at the side of the road.
- Rich agricultural land – many crops growing
- Huge tea plantations
- Houses in the rural areas well built with render.
- High rise development in Nairobi and bad traffic
- Exceptional roads but very little signage and road markings. Plenty of speed bumps to slow traffic down.
- Cattle and goats at the side of the road are tied up so no cattle crossing the road.
- Very friendly people
- Police officers ware blue uniforms. No attempt to stop us.
- Towns and villages are a hive of activity with a variety of businesses and signage.
