Sunrise at Lamu

Lamu made me lazy.. only pulled myself out of bed on the last morning.. and sun already high up.. previous mornings all slept in.. and i stopped tabulating my expenses.. lamu gets into you gradually..

Lamu town square and old fort

Silhouette of a child

He was sauntering on one of the alleys.. swaying from side to side.. seemingly deep in thoughts.. what he's thinking of at this age to make him saunter like that?

Kids on Lamu Alleyways

They kept asking me to take their photos.. and jumped up and down in front of my camera no matter where i was trying to frame a shot.. heh..
