In the years gone by, the city boasted of the Carnivore, L'ora Bleue, Lips and Club Boomerang. Carnivore has maintained its place today and has been joined by clubs such as Florida, Klub House, The Kengeles Chain, Palacina, and Casablanca, among others.But even as Nairobi has maintained its leadership position in entertainment terms, towns which in the past lacked attractive clubs are today teeming with modern clubs which could easily rival the more established joints in the city.
Llueve mucho en Nairobi cuando escribo estas lineas.
Ya llevo dos dias aqui y sin maleta… cruzo los dedos para que haya llegado en el vuelo de esta manyana o el de esta noche de British o me espera un safari sin ropita…
Esta noche llegan los clientes, los recogemos en el aeropuerto Kenyata y les llevamos a dormir al Norfolk. Manyana a primera hora me voy en bus a Arusha y les espero en Kilimanjaro. Y de alli directitos a Tarangire. Manana por la noche dormire en River Camp, escuchando elefantes y ya en plena sabana…
Por lo demas me gusta llegar a Nairobi y ver cambios. La ciudad esta mucho mejor iluminada y mas limpia. Se nota que estamos en anyo de elecciones. Han sido dos dias de gestiones, reuniones y de un lado para otro. Aunque ayer hubo Salsa Night en el Pavement!
La tribu espanyola de Nairobi genial, como siempre, da gusto estar con buenos amigos!
Totaonana!!!
Terminamos nuestro safari por Masai Mara pero no por ellos las aventuras. En nuestro viaje de regreso a Nairobi tuvimos que parar para auxiliar a otro grupo que tenían problemas con un neumático. Hicimos gala de esa solidaridad del viajero que tantas veces he visto y te enseña que la gente es mejor cuando está fuera del entorno de todos los días. También fue de agradecer por la espalda, porque el masaje africano de los baches nos estaba machacando después de una semana.Lo cierto es que allí, en mitad de no sé donde y fuera de los parques se podían contemplar a lo lejos manadas de animales. Y lo más curiosos fue contemplar como un grupo de buitres comenzaron a dar vueltas a nuestro alrededor. ¡Joder que mal rollo!, ayudemos a terminar y regresemos a Nairobi. Todavía nos quedaban cosas por ver. Visita y deja tus comentarios en “Los viajes de Jota”.

Can someone please send me a pdf of this.
At the PR outing last night I coveted Josephine's but she no longer has the pattern.
I asked for a pdf of this in 2006 and Linda in OK sent me a copy ...so did at least two other people. Unfortunately, in what has turned out to be a regular thing, my hard drive melted down and that file was lost forever.
Thanks,
