Nairobi can be a curious place. Take today. I was driving down a road in a fairly central area of this city of at least 3 million people, and I got caught in a traffic jam thanks to a herd of about 100 cows that came absolutely out of nowhere.
People say the cows are coming further into town because a drought gripping Kenya has ruined their usual grazing land. When I returned along the same route, the cows were all munching happily on a tiny, verdant field _ nourished by a stream of sewage _ that sits between the walls of two residential compounds.

Interesting! Is that a 4x4 you're driving by the way??

That is bad news for everyone..the cows need a good place with fresh water to graze and it not really good for them to be drinking dirty water. Hope the drought is over soon for them.

That is bad news. The cows need fresh water and a large area to graze so the can stay healthy. Hope the drought is over for them soon.
