I have been here since Sunday. Yesterday was enough for me to want to update on my new life. Nairobi is chilly and busy. I have been staying with a friend from training back in VA. Its been fun hanging out with the Jgirls here and getting to know them. The family whom I will be in staying in their home has also been wonderful with their hospitality and information. I was a bit timid driving until this morning when I mustered up the guts to ask a friend if I could drive back from the local grocery store, and I did just fine.
A Jgirl here has gotten involved in a local softball team at USIU. I went to practice with her on Tuesday for the first time and lets just say, ' I whipped them into shape.' They all said they had learned more about the game in that one afternoon, than any other, so hopefully I didn't scare them too much.
The other families on the compound all got together yesterday for the 4th. We all brought sides and our own meat for the grilling. We just hung around all day playing cards, roasting marshmellows, and fellowshiping. It was beautiful weather for all of you who sweated in the states- but no fireworks here!
