WE ARE HERE

We arrived safely, not that there was any questions. Everything looks pretty normal here in Nairobi. There is a little higher security, but we like security.Last night we had to go through security check and metal detector just to get into the hotel.
So far Marie is impressed with this roughing Africa style in the Nairobi Hilton.
We are leaving in just a few minutes for our first camp.We are on schedule with what I posted earlier.
We met some wonderful people on the airplane that were returning to Kenya.
Clifford and Judy and 2 childred that are here to bury his mother.They have to go to the most difficult part of Kenya and were asking for prayers.
I don't know when our next update will be, but we hope for some pictures at that time.
Thanks for those of you who added to our blog. As for the rest of you lets get on the stick.

We are so glad to hear from you. It is good to see that things are going smoothly. I am amazed how modern you are with the blog. Wow!
Anica got her braces today and she chose to do bright pink and green. Ander will get his on next week.

We are excited to watch your travels from the comfort of home. It is nice to have National Geographic brought to us!
We love you!

Hey,

I am having trouble with this blog. I hope this gets through. I'm glad to hear you are OK and really roughing it-ha-ha. Marie, you'll go to great lengths not to go to a Peace annual meeting!

Can't wait to see photos--kiss an elephant for me--or a hyena!

Kathy
