On Sunday, we spent some time exploring other areas of
Bondo! We took a local boat over to an island in Lake Victoria, home to a small
fishing village.
And let me tell you… we were swarmed by kids who saw Melissa’s camera and LOVED getting their pictures taken and being able to see the screen.
We also got to visit Mama Sarah Obama, one of our President’s grandmothers! We pretty much have the best conversation starter if we ever happen to sit down for a chat. In the evening, we all headed down to the local market to look at all the food and clothes that were being sold. Melissa and I bought wraps and samosas, as we wandered and people yelled to us, "Mzungu, why you don't buy my tomatoes??"

The team meets Mama Sarah Obama!!
We're now in Thika, which is a suburb out of Nairobi, to experience care at this Level 5 facility (i.e. high volume, referral facility!) It's very different than some of the rural clinics we've been at for the last few days.
