We’re back!! We arrived back this afternoon from an amazing safari. There aren’t enough words to describe God’s creation. It is truly majestic. We traveled throughout it in style. The tops of the van and truck popped up or came open and we were able to stand up as we drove along pretending to be photographers for national geographic. One of the most amazing sights we saw as Mt. Kilanmenjaro. It is located 60 miles away from the resort and when the clouds part you can actually see the two peaks. It was an awe-inspiring moment to realize you had to look in the clouds to find it. As the Kenyans say…the lady lifted her skirt and this is what we saw…

The resort where we stayed truly pampered us as we processed what we have done so far and gear up for our last two full days of ministry. The people we are staying with in Nairobi visit this resort with teams throughout the year and have developed a good rapport with all the staff. Their rapport with the staff is so positive that the staff chose our group for their new marketing brochure. We were treated to a bush breakfast this morning which means we drove out to a hill with a view where tables and a buffet line were set up for us. The staff greeted us with sparkling cider. This was a once in a lifetime experience that we enjoyed as we were captured on film…how many times do you get to go on a mission trip and end up in a brochure? Our pictures are so numerous that we don’t know where to start…you’ll have to wait until we get back for most of them. But here are some pictures from breakfast.
