Wow, Kenya is so beautiful. There isn't as much environmental degridation seen say in Ethiopia. The only rival you have in East African Natural beauty is Tanzania.

You diserve fimbo for wasting beauty.Maybe there is no need for it because we preserve them mainly for tourism. We also try to avoid pollution and other nuisances that may arise from having population centers around.
