At the airport in Nairobi.

Well, we survived the ride to Nairobi after stopping at Amani ya Juu (women's empowerment center we always try to support) to shop and for lunch. We had the opportunity to experience the unbelievable Nairobi traffic we have often heard about. Thanks to our fabulous Kenyan drivers, we made it unscathed and on time! We drove past the Kibera slum as we entered Nairobi. It's hard to imagine what life must be like living there. Deep Sea is similar but small by comparison. It's estimated that close to one million live in Kibera, with most unemployed and the average person living on $1.00 per day. It's hard to put in perspective. It only underscores my gratitude for being blessed, a desire to share, and my desire to never take my blessings for granted. 


We've made it through the initial screening, check-in and passport control at the airport and are ready to go through final security prior to boarding our first flight, to Doha, Qatar. Then on to Philadelphia after a brief layover. Please pray that we make our connection without difficulty, since we must de-plane on the tarmac and get bussed in to the terminal, where we go through security again. All in less than an hour and a half if our first flight arrived on time! Again, your prayers are appreciated.
