When I arrived in Kenya’s coastal town of Malindi, I had one agenda to explore Kenya’s own Little Italy.
Malindi with its 15th century pillar tombs and a thatched 16th century Portuguese chapel was paradise after weeks of rolling about in the African bush.
When cracking a crab shell by the sea one evening, I heard of Gede from the waiter trying to help me with it as Dean Martin’s That’s Amore played in the background. “These crabs, they are very old. Their shells are like stones,” he said as if revealing a secret. “But you know what is older than crab? Gede.”

One early spring day in 1962, Jan and I were driving to the beach in my newly custom-painted, fuel-injected Corvette.
I had spent months hand-sanding the fiberglass. I had taken off all the chrome. The guy from the Japanese body shop I frequented painted the car with twenty coats of Chinese red lacquer.
