Animal Orphanage

This weekend we went to the Animal Orphanage and the Safari Walk (like a zoo).  It was in Nairobi National Park. We had a great time, it was a beautiful place and as usual the weather was perfect. In the "monkey village" some monkeys were in their cage but many were not. This was both cool and a little frightening. 
This little guy was very interested in our stroller so we gave him a ride.  At the Animal Orphanage several people were pointing at us and saying muzunga (Swahili for white person) as we were looking at the animals, the Kenyans were looking at us. We always get some stares but this was more. They are always very friendly and seem most taken by Sam. One man even took a picture of us. We are always in the minority but it is never a problem.

Jeff started work today. He has to wear a suit! He looked great! We have met a few more people and our neighbor returned today with this new wife. They seem very nice, hopefully they will still be nice after hearing one of Sam' s tantrums at 8 am. I have many more pictures to share but it often takes 10mins. to upload one so I am only able to do a few at a time. Hope you are all well. We miss you! Rebecca
