Well, due to overwhelming anti-Microsoft sentiment, I have decided to return to the world of xanga and blogging. Ok, not really, but since I just got back from Kenya on Monday and I can’t sleep in past 7,  I got up and decided to respond to emails. I ran out of emails to respond to so started blogging. So don’t thank me, thank jetlag.

As we speak, I am attempting to cook oatmeal in a rice-cooker. I will let you know the results when I finish with this blog.

So I went to Africa; Kenya to be exact. I went on safari with my Dad for two days and worked at a missions conference for 5 days. I don’t think words will do justice my experience so here is a small assortment of pics:

One of the many flights.  This one is Kenya Airways from Nairobi to Mombasa with Mount Kilimanjaro in the background:

The view from my room in Mombasa:

A storm cloud roles in over Maasai Mara creating one of my favorite smells:

My dad and I on safari:

We watched this lioness hunt a warthog for about an hour.  Poor stupid Pumba:

The kids I worked with at the conference.  I took about 50 lbs of american junk food, CDs and toys:

A fairwell skit for one of the missionaries that I’ve known and loved my whole life:

Back in Nairobi with some of my Kenyan friends:

The oatmeal was messy, but perfectly cooked.  Oh, the marvels of modern technology.
