Since we haven't blogged for a few days, I thought I would update everyone and also give you a vocabulary lesson. Since we are learning some new words, why shouldn't you? Now study hard because there will be a quiz when we get back! Some of the words you should recognize from a certain Disney movie! So here goes!
How are you? - Habari yako?
Fine- Nzuri
Problem- matata ( which is also what the main transportation is called!)
Thank you- Asante
Friend- Rafiki
Bye- Kwaheri
Come- Kuja
Sun- Jua
Wind-Upepo
I think that is probably enough for one day, but these are some of the words one the of patients is trying to teach me and I am actually remembering them! I'll be speaking swahili in no time! We are taking a break from Kijabe this weekend and going to Masai Mara for a safari. Please keep us in your prayers as we are being driven to Nairobi to the airport and the roads are not very good right now due to the increase in violence by the Mungiki tribe. But don't worry mom and dad!

Find out the word for "peace," and use it frequently, along with "friend," while you are on the road!!
I know God is with you....enjoy your Safari!
