I am off on out reach this morning untill sunday. I will be visiting KCC (slum), Hells Gate National Park, IDP Camp and then the Garbage slum for my final time...... On Sunday I will stay in Nairobi with friends then Monday morning i am taking a coach to MOMBASA! for A WELL DESERVED REST on the beautiful white sand. I attempted to book into the stilts hotel but was unfortunatly booked up. I am going with Maddy and Nicky( it will be her birthday whilst we are there).
Saying goodbye to my Kenyan family last nigt was quite emotional( i had to fight back tears). I presented them each with a piece of jewelry which they loved and a card with individual messages.
Life in Kenya is hard graft even if you are more well off than others like my family. Living with them has taught me many things which i shall not forget. Overall Kenya has shown me that We dont need all these extra things we all get caught up in buying, As long as you are HEALTHY this is the main thing. My bus is outside to pick me up......to be continued.xx
Isnt that true!! How quickly we all forget though and start cursing when the bus is 10 mins late or our food has taken too long to cook in a lovely restaurant.
ReplyDeleteThe white beach sounds magical, have you ever been to one of those before, once you try it no beach will ever live up to it!! ha ha!
I think you deserve a nice break and some bathing in the sun and maybe a couple of drinks to celebrate her birthday but please also remember to be careful, it is not just a holiday place it still has its dangers.
Love you baby girl,
