Monday to Wednesday

While Floyd and Bonnie enjoyed an evening out with Bernard, Mary, Judy, Shirley, and Carol and Lucia, Tatiana, and Mady enjoyed a safari at Sweetwaters reserve near Mt. Kenya, Meg and Rebecca were enjoying the sights and sounds of Newark and Washington,DC Airports. Yes, the went from Nairobi to Brussels, Brussels to Newark (3 hour delay out of Brussels), Newark to guess? Reagan in Washington, DC. But, a 2hour delay in Newark after being re-routed to Washington caused them to miss their re-routed flight. They spent the night in Alexandria and then arrived at GSP on Tuesday morning at 11:45 AM. Two pieces of their luggage was not as fortunate. Forty-eight hours of traveling fun--did I mention that there is a great pizza place in Nairobi. No pictures were provided for their incredible journey.

Tuesday Bonnie and Floyd enjoyed a great meal prepared by Judy (who has almost finished her studies as a Chef. She is doing an intern right now.) We enjoyed a great evening. We got to know new friends, Tal (from Australia working with Koinonia and Mumford, a young man who is a member of Koinonia working with their orphans and vulnerable children's ministry.

Wednesday, Lucia, Tatiana, and Mady arrived back from a great safari at Sweetwaters. After getting their luggage and freshing up, we all went for a quick supper together and then to the airport. (As of Thursday afternoon, they are in the US with none of the Meg and Rebecca adventures). Floyd, Bonnie, and Bernard headed for Thika to get ready for the FOBOCK Annual Conference on Wednesday through Saturday.
