Note for the folks at home: The outfits in today's comic point out a noticeable phenomenon among Kenyan locals: heavy coats. Coming from central Illinois, USA, I was astounded upon arriving in Kenya to see anything heavier than a cotton button-down being worn: not surprisingly, equatorial Africa is HOT. At higher elevations, mornings can be cool, but it would be hard to find a populous town anywhere in Kenya where the temperatures don't regularly pass 80 degrees Fahrenheit. I shouldn't, of course, have been surprised; the people who have lived here since who-knows-when would have to adapt to the local temperatures, and so "winter jacket" weather to a Kenyan is often "I'm thinking about taking off the t-shirt, too, and just going bare" weather to an American. This can cause problems when a foreigner shares a vehicle with Kenyans: the choice is either keep the windows closed, effectively baking me into a delicious pot roast, or open a window, immediately giving all the Kenyans pneumonia and frost bite.
