We will likely be without electricity for the remainder of our stay in the guest house at the Robi Family compound. The transformer for the VILLAGE was vandalized last night, and as tomorrow is a national holiday in Kenya for the close of Ramadan, I can't see the Kenyan electric company jumping on our problem.
Sadly, we were also unable to paint today. After another excellent and productive morning in the classrooms (you MUST see the handmade bead necklaces the Standard 7 students created that we will be posting and selling soon to support the project), the construction crew was not able to finish sanding the walls before lunch.
Happily, we took a tour of the village, met some family friends of the Robi Family and Lynn (Stephen and Elizabeth, who supply the eggs to Mountain Park Academy from their 500 chickens), toured the hallowed grounds of Lucy (this woman has built FOUR prayer dwellings in the bush...really in the BUSH), and will be stargazing soon!
And those clouds are NOT computer-generated people! Hoping for electricity, Boniface's health, and to share more with everyone soon about our Tuesday...
