So here we sit in the Nairobi airport, sweating, drinking iced tea (with ICE) at the Java house. Our trip to the airport was somewhat eventful, as the old van took one more swipe at us. We were in sight of the airport when flat tire number 5 got us. Fortunately, armed with our new jack and the fastest tire changing mzungus (white people) in Nairobi we were ready to go within five minutes. But the old van was still resting and wouldn't restart. We pushed it off in no time and were on our way.
The last few days have made us a bit restless. There was little to do and we were ready to be home. We remained civil mostly, but everyone has limits. Overall it was a great trip. We got to see every orphanage and every feeding station except one. We found no significant problems, and we leave Kenya with a profound sense of satisfaction. God is doing a great work here, and we are privileged to be able to participate.
We'll be back in Midland around 6pm Sunday.
