Next few days in Meru, Kenya

Let me tell you about our beds.  Of course they are welcome.  It is a 4" mattress on a bed frame.  Lots of boards.  Takes getting used to.  After the flight and trip to Meru we were ready for rest.  One is concerned about mosquitos and of course there is one or two in our room.  So I covered my head with the sheet.   To hot.  Sheets are brand new and scratchy.  It is a long night.  Next evening we're so tired we are silly, but it's fun.  I tell Jan I'm either going to love her or hate her at end of the trip. 

2nd day we awake to the sound of goats.  Our first batch of goats have come. 16 of them.  We get to wrestle them and take their pictures for all those who have bought one. 

We visit 2 groups today.  They alway sing greetings us. And have big smiles.

Have welcome speeches and on to business.  We have panties, chickens, rice & beans for them.   The second group is established and have done real well. There are 4-5 with an education and they are teaching the other 25 to read, write, math and other life skills.  They have built a water reservoir, new church, nice kitchen.  They are given panties & napkins, 30 chickens, pens, tooth pics, and money for a talapia farm. And they have "tea" for us. I'll explain tea later.

The next few days are mixed, but will try to get all activities in, in some order.
