    Personal highlights

    1. Mombasa: second largest city in Kenyainfo-icon with over a million inhabitants
    2. Old Town: historic settlement - from Arabs, Asians, Portuguese to Brits
    3. Driving: cars squeezing through the narrow alleys are ruining the mood
    4. Dangerous: thou shalt not walk around without guide - marketing?
    5. UNESCO: waiting to become a world heritage site since a decade
