Matatu Ride

local transport in Kenya. This is the regular ride I take from Shalom City IDP camp to Gilgil (nearest town). Only 17 km, it takes at least 2 hrs. Partly because it won't start the journey until it is full, and then along the way, we pick up more passengers and goods. On this ride, we had 27 adults plus assorted children and goods - should seat a maximum of 15!
