Long time no write sorry!

So I haven’t written in ages and there is far too much to tell you!

Last week was good. On Wednesday we took 11 ladies from Power Woman Group out. We had a picnic and our bible study in a gorgeous park in Nairobi. You should have seen how excited they were to go somewhere, I think they literally never leave Kibera and Kibera is not the nicest place to never leave.

On Thursday afternoon we brought Becky and the 3 boys from In His Image to Brackenhurst to play at the play park there. They also don’t get out much at all so that was fun!

What else has happened! Nicole and I went for a horse ride in the tea fields and countryside on Saturday, which was nice =) Just had a relaxing weekend. Made a roast dinner on Sunday! Strangest roast ever though. Phil and Debora put so much spice on the veg and Debora made ‘gravy’ that was yummy but nothing like gravy! We also put lemon and garlic in the chicken, which was absolutely delicious! Moon left on Friday night and Nicole on Monday, which was sad, I’ve missed them this week.

This week has absolutely flown by! I’ve taught two maths lessons to 5 and 6 year olds, which I really enjoyed. It’s funny to think how much the idea terrified me at the beginning! They count in English and the teacher is there to translate so it’s fine. I’ve also spent a fair amount of time at the babies home, a baby was sick on my foot and in my flip flop the other day. Lowlight of my day! The highlight was telling phil about it he was SO unimpressed!

I’m sorry, I can think of so many things to say when I’m not sitting here writing this! I hope it’s enough to say that I’m still having a good time and loving being here! I’ll try write something more exciting next time!!


(I wrote this on Friday and something happened to the internet and wouldn't let me post so here it is now!)
