The day I met Bruce Willis in Nairobi

Its true guys... and I wasn't alone. Was with most of my colleagues, and they saw him; they probably saw him first, but no one would approach him. We all weren't sure it was him. It was just an ordinary lunch time at Java Adams.

A film crew had taken a table in the sun. Their huge Toyota Landcruiser was parked next to the KPLC office... next to Java Adams. A figure emerged from the Landcruiser, black jeans shorts, black t-shirt, huge dark sunglasses and a black baseball hat almost pulled over the glasses. My colleague from the US shouted, "That's Bruce Willis!", we all turned to look. It was him! He walked to the film crew who were waiting for their food, talked to them, then walked back to the Landcruiser. It had to be him. Why the dark glasses and pulled baseball cap? Why not join the film crew for lunch or a coffee? why stay alone in the Landcruiser. He was reading a book. I bet his next movie would be from that novel and he was doing his homework.

Back at our table, we obviously hadn't seen enough to be sure. We thought it was him but had doubts. I hate small mysteries. I stood up and approached the vehicle. I was going make everything clear for everybody. My colleagues are all American, so they were all pretty excited. They watched me in anticipation.

I didnt go directly at the vehicle. I imagined a buff security guy kneeing and elbowing before my lunch. I wanted lunch first. So I walked way past the Landcruiser went 10 metres past it and turned back to it and walked super-slowly. He had opened a back window and was leaning on it, still reading his book. I approached that window.
