So Much to Do

As you imagine there is a ton of things to do before I go to Kenya.

Today St. Andrew's Presbyterian officially offered me an internship at their church. They are going to look for a place for me to stay. There are three boarding houses near the church and they say they are all affordable. It's nice to know I don't have to worry about that part.

I sent off my application for a visa today. The Kenyan Consulate is in Los Angeles so hopefully it won't take too long for my stuff to get there and come back.

I also have an appointment tomorrow to get my shots. I'm getting a typhoid booster, yellow fever, and a flu shot. Kaiser said there is a chance the yellow fever one will make me sick. I have one last paper to write for school so I really hope I don't get sick.

I still have figure out what I need to buy to take with me. I bought some books on Kenya today. It's seem Nairobi will be pretty comfortable with temperatures between 75-85. That sounds so great. The city is at nearly 6000 feet so that helps keep it cool. I really appreciate that. Sounds like it won't be humid either. The bad part is I'll be there in winter and so I may not have many sunny days so if all my pictures look overcast, that's why.

Well I've got to get back to my school work. I'll write more soon!
