I have a few great friends/connections in Nigeria, and Kenya, and your photo reminded me that I need to visit some of the countries in Africa some day. "Great" photo.
Edit: And say, who is that cute guy in the Access Fund T-shirt?

Like the photo and the interesting story behind it.

I had a similar experience in a Brazilian favela. The kid would always ask me what time it was so that he could try and take my watch. He wasn't very bashful about it either. He eventually ended up with it. I gave it to him because his thug buddies were pounding my buddy. I told him to take my watch and his gang and get lost. It was pretty scary, but I still can't get over all the fuss for a stupid Timex!
A young rural Kenyan attempts to persuade me to give him my watch, just before trying to take it outright when our car broke down in the middle of nowhere. Notice the access fund T-shirt?
