And so ends an absolutely amazing trip to Kenya.  Forever in my memories will be the children at Mercy Care Centre, the safaris, the game drives, the wonderful new people I met, and most of all my host, Patrick.

More people at home.  Joseph, a frequent visitor,  in his new shirt from Canada.  Lydia is the househelp, and Rose who is visiting from Western Province.

At home with (left to right) Lisa from Sweden, Patrick's wife, Pamela and Doreen who is a relative and part of the household.

They are laughing at me and my great happiness at being here.  After all, never did I think I would see this sight when studying about it in grade seven or eight.

After viewing from above, the drive through the floor of this fertile valley was an historic moment for me.

Both coming and going one is in awe as the Great Rift Valley appears.  I am no photographer, as you know by now, so these photos do no justice to what is simply amazing.
