Our day started again with a great breakfast of eggs, bacon, sausage and fresh fruit, not to mention the papaya juice that is so good. We then took a tour through the city in the attempt to find a Forex; which is where we exchange our dollars into shillings. This city is very diverse. Traffic is crazy and they do not have many stoplights, but they do have speed bumps that they call 'sleeping policemens'.
We then went to FOCUS, arriving at about 11:00am. It should have been 9:00am, but we are now on Kenyan time. Once we arrived we played with the kids and then had a special program. We sang songs, acted out Jonah and the whale and then gave gifts to the children that were from their sponsors. They were all very excited and appreciated all their gifts.
We then had the privilege of taking the Focus children on a field trip to the Kenyan Animal Orphanage which would be equivalent to a very small Louisville Zoo. It's hard for me to imagine that a child who lives in Kenya has never seen a lion or a giraffe, but they haven't! The smile on their faces was priceless!
It has been another great day being blessed by God through these wonderful children. We are so tired by the time we get back that sleeping is no problem. We all go to sleep with smiles on our faces.
God is so good!
