Orientation



This picture is from my porch. Is it not one of the coolest things ever? That's Mount Kilimajaro at around 6 in the morning. Absolutely beautiful..

Anyways, today was our first full day at camp and it was a blast. First thing we did was travel around the outside loop of camp and were taught how to react when we see a large wild animal. It's really cool how much the staff knows about the environment. I'm also looking forward to running or walking it again, hoping to see some sweet wildlife.

We also went into the town of Kimani to explore and meet new people. Maasai salesmen and women are incredibly determined. One of the farmers had camels and that was really freakin cool too. It was nice to try and interact with everyone, with what little Swahili we know. Everyone is so nice here, and I have to say I really don't mind Kenya-time. After a long hot day, we played a game of soccer. The staff say they're just learning(very funny) but dang they're good. Amazing how much fun you can have with so little technology.
