Update:
this is the first week that the six interns are on our own in the schools. it is such a crazy adventure. everything in kenya land is so different from america. we all have so many stories to share! we recently found 2 scorpions in our bedroom and there are always cockroaches in the toilet..gross!! haha the yucky and scary things do not outweigh the many adventures, blessings, and treasures we have discovered here. We love you all and we are headed to mombasa this weekend (big tourist place on the coast) so hopefully we will all have internet and/or phone access. keep us in your prayers, you are all in ours!!!

  4. Hello Kenya6, Special hi to Chanda.

    I think I might have missed a call from you one night in Phoenix. I just missed it because it was 3:30am and I was a little disoriented, not being at home. I hope your teaching is going well, and that you are staying healthy and having amazing adventures! Hope to hear from you soon.

    Love,

    Mom

  5. Yikes, scorpions!! Watch out for those buggers.
    This sounds like such an amazing adventure.
    Keoki and I just got back from Maui: went to Hana for 3 days, then a high school reunion for four days, including some fun stand up paddling in Lahaina -- while Casey stayed home with Stanley. I'll bet they eat goats there, but don't tell Stanley. Wish you were with us having fun, Madeline, but sounds like you're having an amazing learning/teaching time there! Stay safe.
    Love you, Toni and Keoki

I hope the teaching is go well for each of you and can't wait to hear stories about that. Anyway, hope you all are enjoying your getaway at the beach and are relaxing and enjoying life :)
