I decided to sleep till 9 – that did not happen! The neighbors decided that they wanted to listen to really loud music at around 8 am. I was awake but refused to get out of bed till 9!

I got up, off to take a nice semi-hot shower and as I turned the knob I realized we had no water (This happens all the time here). No big deal I will wait a few minutes and then try again. I walked over to the bathroom light and wouldn't you know it we had no electricity either! (That happens frequently as well!)

After a few minutes debating in my head I decided it wasn't worth it to wait and got dressed. Michelle and I headed to Nakumatt (a local shopping center near our apartment). As soon as we entered the store the electricity went out, so a few minutes went by and then the lights came back on. We bought a much needed iron and then headed to Java House. It's a local coffeehouse house about a 10 minute walk from our apartment.  

We settle in at a table and decide to check our email – they have free wifi. It worked! We couldn't believe it – after our crazy morning of nothing working – finally something was!

I ordered some lunch and a pop (coke!) and then I spent some much needed time on email and skype.

My afternoon was spent back at the team house with our team and the kids from the orphanage. We spent about 4 hours just hanging out and working on drimes. The orphans taught our students some drimes and it was amazing to watch how the orphans blossomed under all the love and attention our team gave them. I love watching love being acted out.

Homemade pizza was for dinner and then we had a great time hanging out and laughing – something we are very good at!

All in all it was a good day, but also a very funny day. In Kenya it seems that you never know what will happen in a  day!
