hey everyone! so we have been in Kenya for 5 days, 2 days in Nairobi and 3 days in Kitale. everyone has been enjoying their time, and soaking it all in. The situation with the house and the people we are staying with in Kitale couldn't be more perfect. They are an amazing couple. Geoffrey and Helen are their names. There are many other people staying at the house as well, alot of them relitives and people working on the property.
we went to the orphanage for the first time yesterday and the responce from the kids and staff was incredable. They burst into cheers and woops, as we pulled up cause it was a suprise that we were coming that day. It was also a suprise that people around their age had come (Candice and I) it was an awsome day just getting to know the kids and joining in on their meals (all talk more about that later ;) lets just say the food is very different. At the house Helen is an amazing cook, so I know if I dont always want to eat the meals at the misssion I can at home. :P Everyone has so many stories and things we want to say, so were going to write up a blog entry on microsoft word at home, then bring the laptop to the internet cafa, where we can post past it onto here. soon I want to post my personal journal entry from Nairobi cause, I think everyone will find it quite interesting. so we will write soon. thanks for all the prayers
