August 7, 2009

Today was bittersweet. Our departure. We started off by having our last breakfast in Kenya. We then all packed up and headed out. It took three hours to get from Nakuru to Nairobi. As soon as we started getting closer to Nairobi that traffic got really busy. It was actually quite scary. First we stopped at an upper class (sort of) store called Kazuri Beads. Everything was very shiny and fancy. I think they would have done really well in America. We then went to lunch at a hotel, which was really good. It only left us with about a half hour in the market though. Really, that's no time at all because you have to barter and all that jazz... so I didn't get a lot of things I would like to have gotten. The market was quite the experience.

Getting to the airport was crazy. Getting all situated took a while. My flight wasn't until 7:10pm, but the majority of the groups was at 6:30pm. I'm pretty sure everyone made it though. That's where I'm writing from... Kenya Airways. I won't get home for two more days. I'm actually headed for Dubai, and I have a 21 hour layover there... it should be fun though!
