We spent this last week in our "home" village of Mukeu, a 2hr matatu ride from Nairobi. This is where our Kenyan family lives and where we have both spent many wonderful days before (Wayne in 2009, Kami in 2009 & 2010).
It was amazing to reunite with familiar faces, see changes and some "same ol's". The kids & calves grew, but the adults look the same!
This area is beautiful. We both love getting back to the country, out in the hills, mountains (on the horizon) & fields, with cattle, sheep, goats, donkeys... gumboots and work clothes... fresh, cool air... It was refreshing (at 8,500 ft above sea level) in so many ways.
The project we hoped to start (an expansion of a maternity clinic in the village) didn't take off because of disagreement among the village leaders... so! we spent our time building relationship, working on small projects, and helping out where we could.
By now you know that we love pictures so see for yourself!
Wayne & Kami
