Hey Mike,<br /> Have you mentally established yourself in Matunda and Milimani? Might take the natives awhile for the novelty of their very own white guy to wear off. I pray that your spirits remain high as you serve the Lord and the Milimani congregation. No doubt, the Packers are keeping your spirits high as well.<br /> <br /> Bwana Akubariki,<br /> Russ

Weather is sunny in the daytime.  Cool/cold at night. Fun sometimes, riding motorbike and kids would be some of those times. The view is not quite the Lion King…but close. Mt. Kilimanjaro is big…very big, but I barely saw it, hidden by clouds. The food is good, nothing too scary. The people here are very warm and hospitable. I like my house Read More
