The Flip Side of Nairobi

How odd that just as I finished the long piece on parish life in the slums of Nairobi, the NY Times came out with a tourist's guide to the city which gives you a sense of the city from the other side of the tracks.

You would never know from the article that 62% of the population lives in slums.

But you can visit Karen Blixen's (Isak Dinesen of Out of Africa fame) home, now a museum and soak up that famous view of the Ngong Hills.
