Local artisan markets are always appealing to me. Guests from the USA took me to the basket shop today. When they said there would be several baskets, I had no idea what they really meant.
We were greeted by ladies trimming baskets.
There were several rooms stacked to the ceiling with bags of various sizes and colors.
I had one of the bags that I selected made into a purse by these gentlemen.
This was such a fun trip, and I was quite pleased with my selections when I returned home. I've already had occasion to gift two of these, so a return trip is a must!

Today I took a girls' trip with friends to a coffee farm and bought freshly ground Kenyan coffee.

When life in the city looks more like life in the country...

I haven't posted much since arriving in Kenya almost two weeks ago, but we are here and doing quite well. We have even made the initial adjustments to living at high altitude. We are in temporary housing on the mission compound, until we are able to move in to the house assigned to us in a couple of weeks. Our colleagues have been very welcoming, hosting us for meals and taking us about town to acclimate ourselves to our surroundings. We look forward to engaging the Kenya Assemblies of God (KAG) and finding our place of service as we settle into life in Nairobi. Thank you for your thoughts and prayers during this transition.
