That picture is incongruous with the image one conjures up of Kenya,after praising it for its natural beauty derived from our animals(wild),trees,bushes,rocks beaches,lakes,and rivers.What we see on the screen in man made.
Really? Not sure how much credibility they is from a magazine that published 12 times a year with an estimated 4.8 million readers whom I believe they are in the 70 years plus range.

As you celebrate these natural wonders, remember to enrich them and others and create room for more...like working to replace the forest that has been lost cover over many years since independence. Simple things like lining up highways with trees(native preferably) would go a long way in re-greening our country, besides providing habitat for our native fauna.
Not just grabbing any available piece of land by building concrete tower after tower. We have even lost a lot of fertile arable lands to these concrete blocks of buildings in areas where food could be grown to feed the nation. Make legislation that will help control this piece of gluttony from the reckless rich fools.
