It's our last night here. We are sitting in the living room of our most gracious host, Vickie Reynen, visiting until we leave for the airport at 1 a.m. Nairobi time.
This morning Vickie took us to a baby elephant nursery, a place where orphaned baby elephants are fed and cared for until they are old enough to join a herd of elephants in the wild.
We ate lunch with the Myers' family in their apartment, and then enjoyed an afternoon of fellowship and games with their children ("Apples to Apples" -- great fun!). We walked over to Vickie's apartment where we ate supper with Vickie and her son Kyle. Bags are packed and we're ready to leave for the airport. But we will leave a part of ourselves here.
Next stop, Istanbul. Then Chicago. And finally St. Louis. We are eager to see you all. Our love to you.
