Top Ten Encounters: Week 2

 

1) Cruising downtown Nairobi. It was fun to see! But we were reminded of the dangers as there was an explosion on the same road we were on only two days later. http://www.csmonitor.com/World/Africa/2012/0529/Nairobi-blast-Could-have-been-Al-Shabab-or-a-lone-wolf-sympathizer

2) Flying to Loki in an eight-seater plane!

So thankful God was protecting you guys and that explosion wasn't when you were traveling through. Praying for all those injured and for those kids and families who are struggling to find food. Love you Mari! Be safe! .. P.s. the camel = soo cool!
