We spent a fair bit of time on the road between Embu and Nairobi. Its being completely rebuilt by the chinese government and it is in a terrible state. Roadworks in Kenya are like nothing you have ever seen. Traffic in Kenya is very very aggressive and thus its an all out free for all on the roads! Luckily we were travelling in a bus and size usually wins. These little signs would crop up along the roadworks. Hand painted, I get the feeling there were only put in place after several vehicles had gone over!

I tried to get that shot but when I was ready, my camera was not and vice versa. It probably is worth a few quid more for a decent camera.
