Inside a matatu

A fews Sundays back, we took a matatu (public minibus) to church, as an adventure. It was fun, though it cost a bit more than taking our car would have cost us.

This Liverpool Football Club sticker was just above my head. (English football teams are really big in Kenya.) Many matatus sport huge logos of Arsenal, Manchester United, or Chelsea. Less common are non-English european teams.
