Some Fun in the Sun

In the midst of all the rewarding work we have been doing we took a few afternoons to enjoy the ocean, sand and each other!

We spent time in the Indian Ocean, on the volleyball court and dancing at the disco! It was a joy to have Jon with us at the coast for a few days. Uno became a favorite after dinner activity. We were all delighted to learn the Indian Ocean is WARM and not so delighted to be covered in seaweed!

Here are a few shots from our fun in the sun!


Getting ready to head into the ocean!

Rachel and Allison wave jumping - yes Rachel is REALLY in the ocean!


At the turtle rehabilitation center in Watamu - a highlight for Rachel!

Rachel and her sea turtle - it does not fit in her suitcase though...


Our view of the ocean!

Some good clean rugby on the beach - notice Jon's skills on the 'field'

Clean until the sister gets that ball...


Chance and Richard kayaking in the ocean


Rachel getting the party started - please note NO ONE else is dancing!


We earned the term "mzungu" that night

Jon's stellar jump serve


Chance at the net - notice the height


Allison, with perfect form!

Mom was there with us, but she was either behind the camera or deep into a good book!

All our best,
The kids in Kenya!
