Last night we left for the beach as a late anniversary present for kylee. We left at 8:30 and didnt arrive here today until about 12:30. Longest bus ride I have ever taken in my life. Only to find out when we arrived here that it would have cost a wopping $30 more to fly and get there in 45 minutes. So needless to say we will be flying back to Nairobi. We were supposd to go with a few kids we met in Nairobi but there was a new group of volunteers coming in and they needed them to translate, so its just me and kylee. Dont worry mom we got two rooms :) But anyway today Kylee and I went out for pizza along the beach and then took a walk along it. It was pretty awesome except for Kenyans have no sense of privacy so every two seconds you have somoene coming up to you either trying to sell you something or take your stuff. Were used to it by now but its still alittle annoying.
The baby orphanage was great the last few days. We were with a ton of awesome people from Australia that were also there volunteering. It was sad to say by to all the kids but I know that we will be back to see them. That made things easier. It is amazing to see the changes in the kids lives from before they lived in the orphange and what they are like now. What Ivan and Mary are doing is truly amazing! Well I hope you enjoy the few pics that I put on here (It has taken 1 hour to upload them) you have to love Kenyan dial up internet. Well Ill try to update once more before I leaev about the Kibera slums but we'll be home in 5 short days. Any Barbeque sauce donations will be gladly accepted :) Hope everyone had a good 4th of July and Ill see you all soon!

Glad you stayed away from the lions! They look pretty fierce to me! Hope we see you soon. You ought to consider writing a book about your adventures! Love...Grandma
TJ,
Loved the pics. They were great. Glad to hear you are having some great adventures....thanks for the call the other day and for thinking of me while at the beach restaurant. :) You have absolutely amazed me with how you have stepped up and taken care of so many details of this trip. You are proving yourself to be a man....even if you didn't wrestle any lions. :) Love you, Mom
