Red roses, dresses and shoes dotted the streets of Nakuru as Kenyans joined the rest of the world to mark Valentine's Day.
Pubs, restaurants and recreation parks were overflowing with 'lovers' out to celebrate the 'day of love' which is marked globally every February 14.
Some couples held hands while carrying bouquets of red roses as well as gifts, chocolates and cakes.
At Kenyatta Avenue the sight of lovers carrying flowers in the streets, or messengers hurrying to deliver bouquets, was a common sight, while others could only marvel at 'exorbitant' Valentine Day Couples' packages prepared by some prestigious hotels in Nakuru.
