Re: This is awesome
[quote name="Ice Cream Jonsey"][quote]The first village we encountered seemed deserted at first, but as soon as we entered the village we saw people coming at us from all sides. They had machetes and sticks and were shouting. "Des Blancs. Argent!" - "White people. Money!". They were all over the place. This was not good! I floored it and sped out of the village. A rock hit the back of our car.[/quote] My brother got married in Kenya in 2024. I was out there with my wife for about 10 days. On one day toward the end of the trip, I walked from our hotel to the equivalent of a strip mall to get some things. Quarter mile, half mile maybe, no biggie. My (now) sister-in-law and her sister said that no matter what I do, when little kids come up begging for water and money do not stop, do not give them anything, etc. etc. Well, little children came up to us begging for water and money on our walk back to the hotel. Probably one of the most heartbreaking experiences of my life. [/quote]
