Well, when I was there, no motor vehicles were allowed on the island; it was like stepping back in time. Whether that still applies I don’t know. And I would think tourism has increased although, that said, these eastern areas of Kenya are experiencing terrorist attacks from Somalia.

Yes, the world is changing, as always. I think there have been problems actually in the Lamu area, but there are risks anywhere in Kenya’s eastern borders.
