Rizzla

Hello again, today friday is my last day in Nairobi and the internet cafe i;m in, is a very very slow one...Yesterday, after going to the airport at 05:30a.m to pick up the german volunteer (Inga) that we will be together on the island, we had breakfast and then went to town . After buying a sim card for inga i wanted to buy some smoking papers cause i've been running out..I asked Nancy where i can find and she asked another person who told her we have to go downtown and there ask again..so we went downtown nairobi and we starte the quest...One shop telling us we have to go further, the next one the same, the other one telling us that is illegal to sell smoking papers in kenya (whatttt?). So after asking more than 6-7 shops we found one in a small street. Outside of this some 3 guys standing.
Nancy went to ask and one of them came to us very very cautionally.
He asked how many we want,
we said whats the price,
he said 50 sheilings,
i said i want 2,
ok he said.... come with me...
so we went in front of the shop where he called inside soemone to bring him rizzla papers. While the other guy was searching for the papers he said to me that i have to give him 50 sheilings also, for taking me there...
but I came here, i said...
yeah, but if i doesnt say to give you he will not give you...its illegal to sell rizzla in Kenya.
Ok, we will see i said...and all the time of the conversation he was looking around him like if he was giving me the hardest drug ever...woawwww. I felt like i was doing something very very dangerous.
After some seconds the guy inside gave him something rolled in a newspaper, he took it, we did some steps and he unwrapped the newspaper and eureka...there were 2 packets of rizzla red.I asked if they had grey ones (what a question ?)...he said red ones are the best and if i want other color i have to go very very far so i took the red ones , i gave him 50 sheilings and we went away...While all this they rest of the persons were looking at me and the girls (not with a bad eye i shall say but their presence wasnt very comfortable) Till now the most surrealistic experience i had in kenya..It was incredible all the proccess from asking Nancy at the beginning till the last moment that the guy after taking the 50 sheilings wanted also to introduce him to the girls and that he liked a lot Nancy...woaw,
Well, as you can imagine we went to have a cofee later and i smoked 3 cigaretes one behind the other...i risked about this papers...Joseph later joked about this telling me that i would have been the first person in the world being arrested for buying smoking papers...
After all this we went to visit the national museum of Nairobi where there was a very interesting exhibition of fotos by Patrick Amory and a very nice exhibition of the evolution from 30.000 millions years ago till now..Next to the museum there is a snake park but we couldn enter cause they were in renovations and wont be opened till next week...

I forgot to tell you that smoking on the street is prohibited in kenya since the begining of the year and who wants to have a cigarete outside, has to go to a construction like a cage and smoke there..people inside the cages all together, like animals smoking..crazy. At least you can smoke in the bars that have smoking zones...Maybe its a oportunity to quit smoking. LETS SEE
