We were in Nairobi for two weeks. Our first week we had meetings with others living in Tanzania to touch base on what has been going on over the past year and the second week was a retreat with all of the women located in our region (all 250 of us). But before the retreat we had a few days to relax and do what we wanted. So we went into town and did a lot of shopping. Nairobi actually has pretty nice malls with tons of stores and food courts. It was great to have so many options for food and they actually had good beef, which is hard to come by here in Tanzania since the cows are pretty thin from eating trash. And I was very excited about being able to go into a dressing room and try on the clothes that I was thinking about purchasing. We did all of this and then went to the bowling alley. As usual I was great on the first game but the second game went sour. And we also went to one of the parks...they actually have parks in Nairobi! It was beautiful and the day was perfect for it. And that's about all we did...we shopped, we ate and we enjoyed.

Alison, Whitney and me...we had a lot of fun together during the weekend...we're sad that Alison and her husband, Brad will be returning to the states all too soon.
A park must have a fountain, why not us?...oh wait, there already is a fountain there. Oh well, others are already staring at us because we're white why not give them a better reason to stare?!?
