I have had a few requests to keep my blog going, so I will try to do that. I don't think it's going to be as interesting as it has been though...so I am not promising anything : )
So I have been home for about 24 hours, and so far so good. I thought it would be very strange to be home, but it feels really good. My dad surprised me at the airport by flying in just for my arrival, from Baltimore. That was pretty amazing. Another amazing thing was sleeping in my bed. I'd been looking forward to that for about 4 months. Also, my Uncle Rob is living with us for the summer, which is really fun, because he is a really cool guy.
Being outside of my house is another story. Grace and I went to play soccer at a field in Cambridge today, and I went to take a left turn and pulled out into the left lane, instead of the right, where there were two cars driving towards me. I need to get used to being on the right side of the road again.
So Grace and I played soccer for about 2 hours, and that was really fun, but I am not in very good shape anymore. My lungs also feel like I have been smoking a pack a day for the past 4 months because the air is so thick with car exhaust in Nairobi.
I went to the grocery store with my mom, which was a little overwhelming, but also fine. I met a water buffalo there named Yvette who was from vermont. Apparently her milk makes the yogurt they sell at Whole Foods. She was a nice water buffalo.
That is all for today. After dinner My sisters and Joy and Uncle Rob and I have plans to play frisbee at the high school track.
Nana says -- Yea!!! Praise God from whom all blessings flow. We are so happy to have you back in the same time zone -- even though we probably won't see you until Aug 4. Please do keep the blog going! Just remember to keep on the right side of the road!
