To get to our next destination, Mount Kenya Safari Club, we had to cross the equator. So, we were driving along and I noticed a sign proclaiming the equator to be right there on that spot. On my request to stop and take a picture I was told, however, that down the road there is a nicer equator. So, here is me on the nicer equator.

( The paraphernalia visible next to me is used to demonstrate Coriolis effect. ) We could have kept on wondering around the orphanage but we had to be in Nairobi by dinner so we said our goodbyes, got in the car and got back on the road. It's not a long drive, only about three hours, and as you drive in what basically is a ditch you can observe massive road construction projects, Chinese are building up Kenyan infrastructure. Maybe next time we go we'll actually be able to drive on a pavement.
