thanks for the positive feedback, dianne and joneses, about the photos. there's more trickling in, but all the internet connections are real slow here.
but there'll be more, in no particular order. someday i'll even touch them up and make them look decent. the ones that look a bit dark or a bit light i should be able to fix when i have time, thanks to the wonders of the digital age. they probably got that way because photoshop has silly defaults for generating jpegs from raws anyway. but i'll get off my soapbox.

i'd really like to thank Whoever It Was That Donated The Ukes. i don't know your name, just that you're a nice person that donated them. so, thanks. they continue to be a big hit with the students we're working with - a few people in each group want to - or already can - play guitar, but don't have access to one. the ukes are especially entertaining for them. not to mention educational.
so, thanks. i hope you find this.

and thanks to the Goldsmiths for sending us to Naivasha. Fish Eagle Inn is a great place to stay, and it was really neat to tour the farm and talk to the nurses there. thank you.

also, people who donated money and equiptment, thank you. our kenyan friends love their shinny new cameras and laptops. they're mastering everything at the speed of light, and i think they'll continue to produce a lot.

thanks to felix masi, who just left us about an hour ago - he's a photojournalist. i think you can check him out at www.voicelesschildren.org
anyway, he's been helping our photography group. giving us tips. helping us communicate with people and find our way around. and entertaining us. so, thanks for all your time.

and stan and dennis from nakuru. they've also mentored and guided us, spending a lot of our precious time helping jump work.

and other youth leaders here, like fred. he's the guy here in nairobi, and he's obviously the guiding force of jump nairobi.

so, thanks everyone. we're off early tomorrow to go safari our brains out. cant't wait.

oh, and i think we're going to the carnivore tonight. it's supposed to be really famous - some kind of restaurant with big game animals as food, cooked hibachi (sic?) style (right in front of you, that is).
it sould be neat. i pity our vegetarian - hopefully they'll have some celery.
