Departure

I went for a swim at 1pm and we had lunch before returning to the house for a shower before leaving. We checked-out at 3.30pm and I settled my bill. The bill was lower than I expected (you put everything on your room so all of our drinks and shopping were "on account") which reflects the low prices in Kenya (60p for a drink and 50p for cigarettes).

The journey to Mobassa Airport was hot. Really hot. I was dressed for London which didn't help. We saw a bit of Mombasa town on the way to the Airport. There's an Old Town and a New Town. The new bit consists of office blocks and the old is... well old - and a dump. The place was heaving with people.

We arrived at the Airport at 6pm. The flight to Nairobi left right on time (8pm) and we arrived at 8.45pm. We had a few hours to kill and spent it shopping in the duty free shops in Nairobi Airport. Prices were great (1 litre bottle of vodka - £5). Our flight to London leaves in 10 minutes.
