Jambo from Kenya!!! We made it here safe and sound and God has blessed us so much so far. We made all our connections, got all our luggage, stayed with some of the most hospitable people I have ever known (thank you to the sweet Conway family for opening your home to us) and have an incredibly nice driver taking us around Kenya. His name is Joseph, he has a wife named Mary, and he was born on Christmas day! Pretty cool.
I'm writing from a cyber cafe in Eldoret where we will stay the night tonight and tomorrow. We spent yesterday in Nairobi holding sweet babies and going to church with some of the street kids. The trip is going very well and we are learning a lot. The Conways were a hugely valuable source of information on life in Kenya, both in Nairobi and Eldoret, which is a much smaller town. I am anxious to see Kisumu and picture what life might be like there. We are all feeling very well, and we are working on getting over jetlag.
I will keep you posted as often as I can. Thanks for the prayers!
About Me

- Malindi, Kenya
- This blog used to be about me and my new husband starting our life together in Brookhaven, Georgia. Now, 8 years, 3 children, and 1 trans-continental move later, I'm writing for me; to document the emotional and spiritual journey I am on so that I don't forget the paths I have traveled in my heart and mind.
Glad you made it safe and thanks for letting us know! Have fun!
ReplyDeleteSarah, I'm glad you're blogging because I want to keep up with what's happening on your trip. I'm eager to hear your impressions of Kisumu.
ReplyDeleteMy birthday is on Christmas, too - I have a Kenyan brother!
So glad you're trip has gone smoothly so far. The Rowells are praying for you (and the Williams and Kahns)
