Dear JC Yes, this video did bring back happy memories for me especially the scenes on Bamburi beach. At the time though we did not have any camels roaming the beach. With all year sunny weather, as a child, most Sundays were spent on this beach where all our family and friends met. My mother would make lots of snacks such as chutneys sandwiches, beef patties, scotch eggs and for our lunch we generally had chicken or mutton biryani kept warm with a towel wrapped around the pan! Teatime was plenty of hot tea with home made cake or baath and biscuits, chocolate and vanilla pinwheels, etc.
When the tide was low, all the children had great fun picking up teesroys (shellfish) from the sand, we had to be fast as they would bury themselves in the sand very quickly. My mother made an amazing curry from these shellfish. Gabe, thanks for sharing, sent the video to all my classmates from Mombasa for them to enjoy.
