On The Equator in Kenya

Nanyuki is a market town in central Kenya, lying northwest of Mount Kenya along the A2 road and at the terminus of the branch railway from Nairobi. It is situated just north of the Equator (0° 01' North). It was founded in 1907 by British settlers, some of whose descendants still live in and around the town. Nanyuki is now the main airbase of the Kenya Air Force and we arrived in the town around midday on the 7 February 2009

There's a simple experiment which we did on the Equator, where you can see how water flows in opposite directions on either side of the Equator:
North of the Equator-water flows down the plughole clockwise
South of the Equator-water flows down the plughole anti clockwise
On the Equator- water flows straight down
