On Tuesday, September the 6th, I flew into Nairobi TO MEET MY PARENTS. I was truly on CLOUD 9!! :) We got to Hampton House soon after midnight and crashed for the night. Wednesday morning, after breakfast at Java House, we headed back to Kisumu with Jake's family and his parents who were also visiting.

Thursday and Friday, we had joint unit meeting/orientation with the Nakuru compound, so there was a lot on the go around this place... It was just great finally getting to be with my parents and show them around! Friday evening, after the Nakuru folks had mostly all left, the three of us headed to the lake for supper...

Saturday was a day of running around... We spent a good part of the morning walking around Kibuye Market, then we stopped here and there and <just about> everywhere. I loved introducing them to my friends all over the place. We headed to the lake again for supper and the sunset...
Sunday was a fairly normal day, with choir and instruction class before church, then Sunday School and the sermon. Joe and Glenda were with us for lunch. One thing for sure, I forget how much I grow accustomed to the driving and other unique cultural sights. It was so much fun to view everything with a semi-"new perspective" all over again... :)

Monday was our famous chicken butchering day, so we were up and at it bright and early... The plucker quit working and other things were rather slow so it seemed as if we weren't going to ever get done! We did eventually get finished, but brunch turned into lunch instead. We went to Luanda in the afternoon and did some errands in town, cut and packaged chicken for the freezer, talked with my kid's club girls, did laundry, and spent the evening at Dean's for supper.
Tuesday and Wednesday were school days again... and Wednesday afternoon, we headed off for Bible Study at Zilpah's... :)

And then.... Thursday morning, we headed off bright and early to the Mara! :) Those pictures will be up next... :)
