sunday night i slept fitfully. monday night i slept till 330, then couldnt sleep any more. so tuesday was a long long very tired day. and we walked. a lot. we went to south b and walked to the beauty school then to new biofuel project a ptc is building there. later we walked with wiki to kibera from the church and visited the elementary school city harvest has there. thats about 40 min each way. then walked another 45 minutes or so to the city center. all while i was the most tired i can remember. i was swaying near the end. and i went to bed at 9. earliest bedtime since gradeschool
but sleeping pills from nakumat junction were the answer i needed. and today i woke up feeling refreshed for the first time in kenya.
we went around with a group from ireland that got in yesterday. they are working primarily with nairobi chapel, another church in town that worked with the amahoro meetings a lot. they saw the vtc and the beauty school. we left them after lunch and went to another post test club(ptc) group in a different slum. we didnt stay there too long because we had to get back in order to leave before traffic got bad. thankfully there wansnt too much traffic. which made...
...it possible for me to drive :-) despite a decent amount of time spent in left side driving countries, till today i had avoided getting behind the wheel. i was also a bit more nervous after watching the driving habits of kenyans for the last week. the clutch in my car back home is super easy so i was a little rough at first, but was smoother by the end. and those constant speed bumps dont make is any easier for a nervous american. but no problems and a nice little thrill
