[HRAP Kenya]
Helllllllllllllllllllllllooooooo everyone out there! This is my first time blogging sorry for the wait (Gabriel speaking). This is our second day in Kenya and I wanted to run through the trip so far. we spent thirty hours in transit how awesome was that, not really. We arrived in Ghana after a ten hours flight. Then we spent twelve grueling hours at the Ghana airport with nothing to do but sleep. After another 8 hours flight we finally arrived in Kenya at 5:30 am. We were really stoked to be here filled to the brim with excitement, and we were wonderfully greeted by Tabitha and Catherine waiting for us at the other side! When we finally arrived at the School for Field Studies SFS center, we took showers and hopped into a van to go sight seeing.
On the drive to Nairobi from our camp we saw lots and lots of wild life, such as lions..no I WISH! We saw highlanders, gazelle, an ostrich, zebra which Nurys named peanut, we also saw wildebeests, lots of cow, big ugly birds, and monkeys which we were allowed to feed..how cool. When the drive was over we arrived at this huge mall in Nairobi like the kind you see in the States. We came upon a Maasai market where we were allowed to buy gifts and experience bartering for goods. By the way Tabitha she got skills she helped me bargain. We then returned to the SFS center for dinner, light conversation then sleep.
At this moment we are at the Greenbelt movement center in Kenya, where they're letting us use their internet. We have spent the whole day here and have learned so much about what they do. Now qe are going to watch a movie about the founder and noble prize winner Wangari Mathai. I am really glad to be here with the people i am here with each and everyone of us brings something to make this trip just breath taking and it's only the second day.
