Back from Paradise
Back at Mwamba after a great weekend sipping fruit juice and wandering the narrow, donkey-filled streets of Lamu. Lamu an old Swahili town on an island with no cars, and was a great place to hang out for a few days. I think the pictures will have to do it justice, since I don’t have enough time to describe it in detail. This morning Christina and I spent 3 hours snorkeling out in the Marine Park, a coral reef just a 15 minute swim out from the beach here. We saw some amazing fish and got pretty sunburned in the process! Now we’re here for about another week before heading off on our next adventures. I’m trying to finish up some things work-wise, like report-writing and other random tasks. Although I must say it’s become harder and harder to get anything “productive” done. Visions of Mt. Kenya loom in my head – of snow and glaciers and a blissful break from the heat! J Sorry to keep this short…really there’s lots I could, and should, share, but alas it will have to wait.

Lamu! Oh I remember Lamu! Great kikois (even if I don't remember how to spell the word). Great sunburns (rather unpleasant). My favorite thing to do in the city was to sit on the roof of the hotel we were staying in and watch the animal traffic below. It probably didn't hurt that there was a decent breeze up there, too.
