When going to the school we toured the area Were the kids live and come from. It is one of the many slums around. It's very humbling to see. We walk through this alley where they place all their trash and the chickens pick at it. We just walk over it for 30 yards. It's an experience that I will not forget and remember back home in being greatful.
On Saturday the 3rd me and the two British girls went on a tour of old town Mombasa. We went to fort Jesus, the spice market, saw the famous Mombasa tusks, got henna done in a local house, walked through multiple markets, went to a famous hindu temple, local streets, and saw the Holy Ghost Cathedral. It was crazy and very fast paced and our tour guide actually lit up a joint and was high while taking us through the outside of the Fort. It was such a crazy but hilarious and fun experience.
I also saw a giant tortoise at the entrance to haller park. We became buddies
On the weekends we teach the teachers how to swim. On Sunday I am blessed to go to mass with Simon and benson. The church is beautiful for its simplicity. The music though is absolutely AMAZING.
We also go to the beach on weekends and go to the resort near by and chill out. It's very relaxing.
And at residence they watch tv a lot which I am not used to so I made everyone play cards one night.
And we hand wash our laundry!!! Oh yeah my grandma taught me well.
