Kenya has really flourished and continues to be a blessed paradise.

I also didn't like that in Lamu most hotels served continental dishes. Like, that place should be rocking with all the flavors of Swahili dishes. Even the people doing Swahili dishes aren't really doing it that well. They have really tried to make the dishes accommodating to foreign visitors while losing the Swahili flavors in the dishes.
