We're finally able to post pictures now that we have figured out which computers in the cyber cafe are fast enough to send pics :)
These pics are of Steven and I at the orphan feeding program. They give school lessons while the food is being prepared, and since we are mzungus (ma-zoon-goos =white people) it is assumed we are educated and know how to teach. So we did :)
I am getting slightly frustrated with "kenyan time" and the setbacks it creates. But we just keep reminding ourselves to "embrace the culture", and learn to work around it. We spent the afternoon with an AIDS support group that also teaches women craft skills to help them raise an income. They have just started a little shop, and were teaching new members the skills today.
Steven has jumped into the beekeeping and it seems his work is cut out for him. He spent yesterday trying to hack a path to get to his beehives with a machete. Anna and I have been asked to teach CPR classes to nursing students, and possibly nurses as well. It seems that attempting to resuscitate people is not done very often here, but could be helpful in some situations. We don't have the measures to save people that have already gone into full cardiac arrest, but I think at least the labor/delivery nurses should know a little CPR :) It should be interesting at least.
