DescriptionU.S. Senator Barack Obama was greeted with a hero's welcome in Nairobi on Friday, on the eve of a planned trip to the small Kenyan community where his late father was raised.

Obama, who visited President Mwai Kibaki in the Kenyan capital, was later joined by his wife and two daughters at a memorial park built where the U.S. Embassy once stood. Obama laid a wreath at the monument, which lists the names of 248 people killed in a terrorist bombing claimed by al-Qaeda.
