the elephants and giraffes

I'm not suprised that God is already working in this trip. Today, we woke up early and ate breakfast and it was so good. A spanish omlette! Then we met Neutron, our new guide. So now we have four guides: Peter (obsessed with plants and animals), David (an excellent soccer player), Victor (into video photography), and Neutron (sound manager). Today we went to Karen, a upperclass suburb where both white/black Kenyans live. Our first stop was at the elephant orphange. It was awesome. We learned so much about elephants. Next, we went to the giraffe conservatory where we got to feed jiraffes by hand! Some of us (not me) even french kissed some of the animals. Then we went to Karen Blixen's home, the woman who wrote Out of Africa. It was too expensive to go inside, however, we got to walk around her home and it was awesome and beautiful. We came back to the Shalom House to meet the "Father", the Italian priest who started the Shalom House. He is sweet. We then had dinner and devotions, and we all wanted to worship so we sang six songs. I'm tired and am getting chubby. They stuff me with food. It's freezing here, and I don't have enough warm clothing. I just got bit by a mosquito, so I'm going to go to bed. PEACE.
