They loaded in a different order, so starting at the bottom is a picture of Sam in the yogurt kitchen with the Yogurt Mama's. We have been walking out to Mabatini (where the kitchen is located) about three times a week to sit in the kitchen, talk about the project, and work on our Swahili with them. They are very helpful and love reading through our dictionaries and quizzing us on words.

The next picture up is of the yogurt kitchen outside.

The third picture from the bottom is of our 'getaway' spot, where we go to read and relax on the beach. This is Tunza (well, the beach at Tunza) and Lake Victoria. We normally head out there on Sunday's to relax, and work on our Swahili in a gorgeous place.

The fourth picture is of some of the kids at Fonelisco. Everytime I pull out my camera they all want a personal photo shoot, this was one of the few group photo's I had. Sam and I head out there on friday afternoon's where we have started teaching English with some other volunteers, and on Satudays we are there playing games, and taking the children to Lake Victoria Swimming.

The fifth photo is one of the clearer photo's of us stuck in the mud en route for the Serengeti. This is Sam and Jodi (a volunteer from Kincardine), as well as a few locals, waiting around the car on one of the many times we got stuck in the mud that night.

This is where we ended up spending the night. Although the sign points at our site, we were stuck just off to the left of the sign at about 1 in the morning and decided to call it a night. This is our camp site that we spent the night on... It is actually in the middle of the road to the real camp site. This was the first time Sam and I got to hear the 'Sounds of the Serengeti' at night while we slept. Mainly frogs and birds, but the occasional hyena could be heard in the distance.

This is the pathway to the main lodge at the real camp ground. We spent a second night out there in fear of getting stuck in the mud. As you can see, it did rain again, we we enjoyed our night in a dry tent and with the baboon's wandering around the campground.

Sam and I will try to load more pictures in the next week of the public school, more of the yogurt mama's, Kivulini, and our Serengeti expedition! We have started our swahili lessons and spend 5 hours a week in class studying and practising, and have come to realize what a beautiful language we get to learn.

Updates to come very soon!

Kwa Heri!
