A Walk in the Mud

Walking is a big thing in Kenya. So the other day Sara, Ashlyn, and I decided to go for a walk through our neighborhood. Here are some pictures of our experience. (Unfortunately it is rainy season and the roads are muddy.)

  1. When I was there I was told that a famous marathon runner trained in that neighborhood, have you seen Him? I also watched a soccer game for a bit there.

    1. I haven't seen him, but I think he still owns a house here.

  2. Looks like a fun muddy adventure! :) So...is that the girls orphanage that you minister in from time to time?
