Italians flocked to Malindi 15-20 years ago. Since the global crisis in 2008 everything is just declining in Malindi. The town is dilapidated, ill-maintained and generally sad and dirty. Malindi goes to sleep at 9 pm. The beaches are nice, though.

they began flocking in in the 60s due to the luigu broglio space center. it launched its first satellite 'Uhuru'in 1970. the videos are available on youtube. The KSAB are planning to launch a series of nano satellites later this year from the center and i encourage any kenyan with means to do so to go watch

Was it the Italians or Germans who came first?

Malindi offers a wonderful mix of new and old - all along the palm fringed beaches are luxurious resorts ready to pamper to your every need. But not more than 20 Kms away are the Gede Ruins which was a town founded in the 12th century, which was prosperous and flourished unitl the 17th century when it became abandoned. Surrounding these ruins is the Arabuko - Sokoke Forest, which is the largest remaining coastal forest in Africa.

And in Mombasa there a place referred to as Kisumu ndogo(little Kisumu) cos it has a huge Luo population. Just don't make it about race.
