A deeply emotional moment unfolded when a young child, who had been unable to see, opened his eyes for the first time after undergoing surgery.๐ฅฒ๐
๐ There is a #Kenyan๐ฐ๐ช hotelier, very active on social media, named @mohammedhersi.
He always signs off his posts with these words.
"I choose to be an optimist"
Today, I will borrow his words.
The usefulness of Riverbeds built throughout the city in #AddisAbaba ๐ช๐น is more pronounced and visible during this rainy season. This 2 minutes clip shows two opposite side ends of a riverside, "Wello Sefer, through Peacock and Arada Park, (Ras Mekonnen bridge)
The river flows smoothly on its bed without overflowing on traffic.
It's clean, no garbage and plastic in it and has a majestic natural vibe flow.
Yes. I have seen some flood in roads on some parts of Addis Ababa, as it is normal in ANY COUNTRY in the world, when it rains.
But, there is also ๐๐
Using some 2 seconds video and flood on heavy rain cannot and should not discredit ๐ unless one is so miserably negative.
As Mr. Hersi would say, I choose to be an optimist.
Theres roughly 4 alternative routes to nakuru
To avoid this road your options are
1.Nairobi-Mai Mahiu-naivasha
2.Nairobi-suswa-narok-njoro -nakuru/kericho/mau summit
3.Nairobi -gatundu-njambini -engineer -olkalaou -nakuru
4.Nairobi-nyeri-nyahururu-nakuru
Realistically all the 4 roads are preettier than the main road with 100-150kms extra
Realistically they will be fastwr and cheaper (cars use more fuel in traffic than on highways -especially standstill)
