Yes, that's right, tomorrow is the big day. The last few days have been pretty stressful doing last minute errands and packing our bags. Nikki almost couldn't get her bag shut. Now we are sitting here contemplating what we have gotten ourselves into and what lies ahead...
Recently we have received additional information on our accommodations in Kenya. Kajiado, home to the Masai tribe, is extremely rural. There is no electricity and the nearest Internet source is 20 minutes away by bus. Our host family has three children, ages 9, 12, and 14 who will help us get accustomed to the area. We will be arriving in Kajiado on Thursday evening and we expect to begin teaching on Friday. We will then have the weekend to get settled into our new home. We hope to update the blog as often as possible, however, this may happen only once a week when we venture to the next town.
Some family and friends have already posed some interesting questions that they would like to have answered: What's the food like? How do you say bad words in Swahili? Does the Masai tribe really drink cows blood and milk? What is the religion like in the area? What's with the jumping? If you have other questions let us know and we'll try to get them answered for you. On to Africa!!!
