Our fun new game....

When are our apartment starts shaking we now have to ask ourselves is it an earth tremor or is it the bus. Formerly it was the bus pulling up outside our apartment that would make the floor and walls shake but recently Nairobi has been experiencing "earth tremors" from an earthquake in Tanzania. This isn't all that new of a phenomenon for His, but it is for me.

We only have a few more days left. Finals are Monday, then Wed we leave for the Masaii Mara to watch the great migration. Then we will hit the Ocean for a few days before returning to the states.




UPDATE: Despite the coverage on CNN and other media outlets, the embassy has not ordered an evacuation. Also, the discussion of panic in Nairobi is unfounded, at least where we live. Life is continuing on as normal (or as close to normal as living in Nairobi can be) with the exception of some mild vibrations every now and then. We will keep you updated if anything changes.

I am ready for ya'll to be back on solid ground in the whole US of A, more specifically - Nebraska.

We are really looking foward to your visit.

Let me know if there are any additional requests at the Richter-Steele B&B. Not sure that it will measure up the standard of luxury you have experienced in Egypt and Africa - especially the service
