Kijabe - "Place of the Wind" yes indeed. Just lovely...the billowing white clouds hover in a clear blue sky and you feel as if you could just reach up and touch them, the brilliant yellow weaver birds sing and steadily work making nests for their potential mates, the flowers are the most beautiful fushias and purples and we are on the mountainside overlooking the Rift Valley staring straight a Mount Longonot. I can't believe there are zebras and giraffes down there. This is just amazing.
We are settling in to our 2 bedroom spacious home. Gus met another Gus today age 1-1/2yrs old and his brother 2-1/2yrs old and a couple of their friends, they live a few houses down, so there will be plenty of fun to be had. Unfortunately his adaptation to the new time zone is lacking, so no play date today. Hopefully the agony of sleep deprivation won't continue on much longer and we will run into them at church tomorrow and make even more friends still.
Already did a little vegetable shopping in the market and tried our first world famous homemade samosas and english muffins. Gus thought it was just great that all the vegetables are displayed at his height, creating an ever so fun game of grabbing them and then getting chased by mommy before he put them in his mouth. Utter delight....and utter terror for mommy.

Ok, so it's pretty cool that you made Kijabe blink on the map and your verbal descriptions bring Monet to the blind but any chance you can find a camera cord?!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you're settling in and finding good food, sights, and people. Miss you already, xo, Liz
