On Monday, we left Nairobi and traveled to Miwani, which is near Kisumu. This trip took about 8 hours, but the roads are much better than they were 3 years ago. We stayed at St. Luke's for 2 nights, which I really enjoyed. St. Luke's is an orphanage and school that also has income generating projects like farming to help provide food for the kids and also jobs for the community. It was definitely very different from last time I was there, probably because we weren't really there for long enough to really build relationships with the kids. Then, on Wednesday, we drove 6 hours to Lake Naivasha for a few days of relaxing. Yesterday I went on a safari in the morning which was pretty cool. We actually got to walk around with giraffes and zebras! Other than that, I've mostly just been enjoying a few days of relaxation. Tonight I'm going back to Nairobi, which will be good.
The 1010 group is here for another week and a half, but I'm still trying to decide what to do after they leave. I was planning on going to Tumaini orphanage, but it's pretty expensive to stay there, so I may just keep staying with Fred and Alice and help out at Candlelight and the safe house. Please pray for me as I make these decisions.
