I know that Mount Kenya is the second highest mountain in Africa.
You also have the Masai Mara, so getting eaten by a lion is always on the cards.
On your days off you could go looking for your ancestors in the Great Rift Valley.
Fortunately the national language is English.
My friend and sometime drinking and erstwhile golf buddy, Eddie, is a Kenyan.
He now coaches Rugby. He says that it is still a poor country and you need to be careful.
So be careful.
Being a predominantly christian country, there is a ready supply of booze including Tusker[^]
They play Rugby, Cricket and Whiff Whaff, so you should be ok for sport.

I sincerely hope you are not one of those who believe that people have fight against wild animals while on their way to office in cities in Africa.
Tusker is good.

Tusker's ale, My Dad regales with tales of Crates of Tuskers, a Jeep called Clare & a Lanchester machine gun. Seems to hard to get in this country, while quite easy in Belgium...

My old man spoke of Kenya with fondness. I've been there twice in the early 60s before independence. It was an exciting place for a kid. It's a beautiful country and I'm sure it still is. As long as you expect the unexpected all may go well.
If there is one thing more dangerous than getting between a bear and her cubs it's getting between my wife and her chocolate.

Maybe even links to Wikipedia. And then the circle is complete ...

As if my forgotten anniversary woes weren't enough, I put the electric toothbrush in to charge yesterday morning. Come nighttime Princess takes it out to use it and it's as flat as when I put it in for charging. We checked the switch was on and then she noticed the characteristic teeth marks on the charger cord.
For the second time, one of our cats got bored and chewed on the cable and the charger is now stuffed. Thanks a lot cat. That's £23 to replace it. It's coming out of your pocker money.

There are ways to fix that, scratching post, ipad on the floor, dangly thing for them to chase, frying pan if all else fails.

I meant "pocket" but interestingly, a quick google on "pocker" reveals it as a nickname for the devil.
Where's that cat? It needs exorcising; it's also a black cat which sort of confirms it.
