When Obama travels to Africa next month for a five-nation, 15-day tour, he will have one credential no other U.S. senator can claim: he is the son of an African. ``As the only African-American in the U.S. Senate, there is obviously some symbolic power to my visit,'' Obama said.

Nairobi (pronounced /narobi/) is the capital and largest city of Kenya. The city and its surrounding area also forms the Nairobi Province. The name "Nairobi" comes from the Maasai phrase Enkare Nyirobi, which translates to "the place of cool waters". However, it is popularly known as the "Green City in the Sun" and is surrounded by several expanding villa suburbs.[2
