Homa Bay County on the southern part of Lake Victoria (Lolwe) is different from Siaya. Rusinga Island, off Mbita by a bridge was the starting point of my visit. Why don't we name our bridges like Americans?
The idyllic island has a ring road that takes you about an hour to cover. The road is untarmacked -surprisingly. I turned left after the bridge past Wakiaga Vocational Training Institute and Kakrigu Health Centre before turning back; this route to Tom Mboya mausoleum was blocked and under repair.
