back in the states! that feels weird to say - can't believe I'm back already! It was a great trip - hopefully you can tell that from the blog. The travel back was pretty uneventful, just REALLY long. I had to take an earlier flight than I planned out of Kisumu because the later flight was full and so I sat in the Nairobi airport for 7 hours... ughh. not the airport for that - just halls and halls of duty-free shopping. I found a plug and sat on the floor, playing spider solitaire on my computer. Fun. :o) That was after waiting near the check-in counter for two hours because no one was there to check me in. ha ha. anyway, I'm home, safe and sound.

It was so hard to leave! I had a great last week hanging out with the kids, doing a little malaria education, teaching some english, etc... I was really thankful for the opportunity to go to Mbita and learn more about community mobilization, education, setting up the clinic and getting to see how that community lives and functions. I am so glad, though, that I also got to hang out at YGC in Kisumu - can't wait to go back!!

The kids did a little show on thursday night - man, can they sing and dance! I cannot believe sometimes how some of those little girls can shake their hips - wonder where they learned that??? It was great - I took a bunch of videos on my camera... I'm going to try and figure out how to post it. I'm sure it's possible, I'm just technologically impaired sometimes. okay, more pictures coming and possibly a video. Can't wait to catch up with all of you in person!
