Early Sunday

It is 6:30 and I am already up. Might be because I couldn't stay awake past 9:30. Jet lag can be rough. Kim is still sleeping so I thought I would give ya'll a little update on what we did yesterday. We went to the Kibara Slums. The are just outside of Nairobi and over 1,000,000 people live in just a few square kilometers. Apparently it was also the set for "The Constant Gardner." I know you see these type things on TV, but until you stand in one it's hard to get the real image. We didn't stay very long because it starts to feel like you are taking a tour of poverty and you don't want the people (at least the adults) to feel like a sideshow. And you can't take many photos because its impolite to take a photo of someone without their permission.



The video is from a school that is in Kibara. It's a primary school, which gets kids up to our equivalent of 8th grade. Right now Will and Joe are working on getting a secondary school started that will take the kids all the way through graduation.
