So much for not feeling the jet lag. Sunday was ok, but we've all been pretty tired for the last couple of days, and waking up at night... We have spent both yesterday and today sitting in class all day, too, which doesn't help. 8:30 AM to 5:30 PM. That's a long day, but the stuff we're learning is good. It's similar to our Carey courses at Westhill in that the Community Development workers can sign up for the series of 10 classes and earn a certificate (from Carey) in Integral Mission. It's all very practical development stuff. It will translate to Canada, but is pretty specific to work here mostly. The 10 courses will all be in Kenya over a couple of years, and then they will offer it in India and then Bolivia maybe.

It's getting to be winter here, so while the sun is hot in the middle of the day, the mornings and evenings are cool. Nothing to complain about, but not much different than home (although probably cooler!) so don't be jealous about us being in a great climate...

Mike got sick last night and went in to the hospital this morning - he's got a bacterial infection. They caught it pretty quick and he's already feeling better, but you can pray he gets fully better and that no one else gets sick on this trip. While they were on their way back they saw giraffes and gazelles. Lucky! Today I saw a really big frog.

We generally pair off at meals and sit with people we don't know, so we're having a great time meeting all sorts of interesting people.
