Home and Safe
I'm home at last, a bit road weary and sick with a terrible cold, which came on just as I was leaving Kenya, but at least I'm here and in one piece. It was really good to see David's smiling face at 12:30 AM this morning as he greeted me at the airport. There were all sorts of delays and hassles traveling because of the terrorist threats. JFK airport in New York was a mess, but by some sort of miracle I did make all of my connections. My luggage, however, did not make it to New York, so I am still awaiting that. It was really good to sleep in my own bed last night and I'm going to need a couple of days to recoup from the past two weeks of intense work. However, we felt like we accomplished everything we planned to do on this trip and despite the long haul back (about 50 hours if you count the time traveling from Malindi to Nairobi and waiting for our plane in Nairobi) we really felt like it was a worthwhile trip. More photos and updates later when I'm more rested...
