It was a nice surprise to see Johnstone waiting for us at arrivals! It was great to see our old friend! We then had a longish drive through Nairobi traffic to the Balozi guesthouse where we are staying. It is a very nice home in the area where we have stayed for the past several years. We had a quick stop in downtown Nairobi to exchange some money for Kenyan shillings.
We settled in to the guest house quickly and then embarked on another adventure. We went back downtown to meet up with Esther and grab some lunch at a nearby Java house (it was great to have cold drinks again). Then we went to the Masai market to do some shopping. Esther joined us, but, Johnstone elected not to (smart man!). We always have fun shopping at the market as there are many sights to see and every year new items. So, keep your eyes out for the craft sale in late fall/early winter in Sechelt!! The fun part is bartering with the people selling the items – they enjoy it as do we!
Today we shall go to Church in Mathare North. There we will get to see more of our Kenyan friends. In the afternoon we will have a Kids for Kids Meeting with the Tumaini School board. Stay tuned and thank you to all of you who are reading and commenting on the blog!
