Where do we start during this, the latest Africa Web TV\u2019s trip to Kenya. Well let\u2019s start at with our visit to the Kenyatta International Convention Centre (KICC). The KICC in itself is impressive but standing atop the 105-metre building, one becomes a witness to a spectacular view of Nairobi that many visitors and tourists don\u2019t get to see. When the sun is shining and the sky is bright, you knew if you were an African, why the continent is so special.<\/p>\n

We also realised as we were taking pictures and filming some shots that we might have to face some questions from doubters and unbelievers about the authenticity of the images. After all, for many, the images of Africa that is embellished in their psyche is that of the muddy village roads with poor children roaming the streets. To be sure, that is part of Africa too. But at Africa Web TV, part of our mission and goal is to present a fuller face of Africa. One is always amazed at the one-sided image of Africa that even Africans themselves believe in.<\/p>\n

And true to our thoughts, the first private questions we got after we posted the pictures we took from atop the KICC were something like \u201dare you sure those pictures are pictures you took in Nairobi?\u201d Yes it is Nairobi! It is certainly not Amsterdam or Paris!<\/p>\n
