Day 199 – Saturday 14th August 2010

At last we have a morning with no alarm blaring at some early hour, but we can’t be too late as we have work today.

Armorel started the day by visiting one of the ‘familia moja’ clients at the sisters of charity and their care home. They care for and house all that are in need from 1 month year old babies to 80 year old ladies. Mainly those abandoned or with additional special needs and disabilities. It is a phenomenal place and one which we think will have a huge impact on us in the coming months. More to follow I am sure.

We then headed off to the shamba to continue clearing the land for the houses. It was a hot day and working in the heat of the day tookP1010315 its toll. I nearly took this little boys head off with my panga but just pulled away in time. Mama Ndugu has decided to adopt him as her pet, and named Harry.

This evening we headed to the Orion for dinner and some leaving drinks for various people. A large number of short termers are leaving in the coming weeks so it was nice to get together. Though waiting just shy of two hours for your food was not appreciated.
