Nairobi photos

Okay, so these are in no kind of order, really...This is the low rider station wagon Kimberly graciously lent to us for a safari through Nairobi National Park, and me in my stylin' safari hat :) I had no idea I would actually go on safari in it when I bought it....crazy...
Kibera slum, the railroad tracks right through the middle are the main thoroughfare for pedestrians.
Kibera slum...notice the power lines...yes, there is electricity in the largest slum in the world...
Electricity but not so much sanitation...so interesting.
On New Year's Eve after an early toast with champaign we ran outside with pots and pans and spoons and made a racket running up and down the stairs, living up to our loud Americans status
Nathan and Ashley and I on the ice
Ashley, me, Abby and Rachel - Abby and Rachel were two of our 3 gracious hostesses (Karis was in Ireland at the time - returning a few days later)
Holding on for dear life :)

So, those are a lot but hope you enjoy them. I still need to write about my interesting thoughts about Nairobi, don't I...another day...
