I only visited Nairobi once while I lived in Uganda,in Jinja. Jinja has such a pleasant climate,it only fluctuates from 74-82 F,.We always had a cooling breeze from Lake Victoria,and at about 3500 feet altitude that kept the heat down. There was a single railway track,trains would have to get off on a siding while a train came the other way. It took 24 hrs to to get there. We were shivering in the highlands at night,teeth literally chattering.while next day in Nairobi it was 100 degrees,and I got sunstroke. Even my Ugandan friends after a morning walking around in a temp 20 degrees higher than usual had developed scabs on their cheeks and lipsNone of us had the sense to have a hat. I looked exactly the colour of a lobster lol.
Such are the joys of African travel.........
