First Photos!

I hope to provide photos more frequently here, in Africa, than I did in Guatemala. I have internet in my room, so it should be easier, for now!

I'm also putting together videos that I've taken. Maybe that will come up here too when I have time... and enough footage to make something respectable.


I arrived early enough to sit with Martha in the Chicago airport!
(not sure if she'll appreciate me posting this picture on the internet or not...)

The sun setting on the past...
...we're on to something totally new.

Clouds over Africa
...we passed over so many cool places from London to Nairobi. Paris, Genoa, Rome, Khartoum. you know...

The desk in my room with a nice window. The rest of my room is too boring to show you pictures of. I'll just say that it's really nice. Think single hotel room in the US (with free internet...kinda).


On my bed in my room, mosquito net and all.
Note the gobs of blankets. It's "winter" here...
Upcoming photos could possibly include: Kibera, the Giraffe Center, traditional dancers, the "nightlife," or just some CUEA school action.
Take care! Sending blessings and love to you all!

I just finished reading all your blogs while I sat here with ice on my face! Got my wisdom teeth out yesterday, in more pain than I expected to be in. :( ANYWAY back to you!!

I was worried when my mom & Patrick said they hadn't heard that your plane had landed or anything, and you were a little "MIA" for a few days :) I knew you'd be safe though, no news is good news eh? glad you made it alright!!

I read all your blogs but I decided to just make a comment on one instead of each individual one. :P I have to say I'm totally intrigued and I'll read your blog like a good novel :) It's amazing to see what all goes on there and what it's like. I'm interested in the way their language is there-you will have to demonstrate for me sometime!! I'm glad to hear you've met interesting people, and sounds like you're fitting in very well!! (Why wouldn't you?)

I shall keep up on your blog and hopefully write you sometime! How much is postage to send stuff all the way over there.... Hm. I should paint you a picture to put in your room! :)

Well that's all from me for now, sorry if I'm babbling or don't make sense, on lots of good pain meds right now. :(

Take care!!!!
