Welcome, welcome, sorry about the mess

So this is my blog, it's mainly about Africa and the fact that I'm going there, but it'll probably go on many a tangent before I'm through. Enjoy reading about my adventures, I know I'll enjoy having them.

I'm a Methodist, Get me out of here!

Lovely, quite reserved church here in Nakuru-yeah right. They're all completely mental (Think EP given copious amounts of illicit substances). The morning service yesterday was from 9 until 1, from next week though I'll be teaching Sunday schools, it was good but i don;t think I could sit through it every week. I'm going to be teaching English in the afternoon which could be rather interestin, I'm also apparently joining the churches dance group and learning to play the guitar, not sure which of those scares me the most.
I'm having a great time here-have sunburn and a summer cold. Samuel and Jacqui are brilliant, my room and their house are beautiful, the toilet facilities are interesting.
I'm sat next to two Germans in an internet cafe, they are the first white people I've seen since I left the airport which is quite surreal.
Mum-the flight socks were worn and much appreciated, Matthew-I've got an adopted sister now who is one year younger than you bit not nearly as adorable, Susie-I take my tea iced with lemon and one sugar,Little Sarah-I've not climbed any fences but the fiel keeps getting bigger around me.
Off to do a food shop-they have rainbow coloured breakfast cereal and milk comes in a cardboard pyramid!

Great to hear you are safe and well and getting stuck into things, probably literally knowing you.
Love always

Relieved to know you arrived, hadnt heard anything on blog, not seen anyone to ask. Worried you had been eaten by a giraffe or similar.

YOu keep smiling, I'll keep praying - and I tell Anthony you got there okay tomorrow

I hope the EP in lots of illicit substances isnt me by the way, I dont need those make me mental!

YAY for travel, and churches and God! That service is even longer than the ones in the church I go to here. Glad you arrived safely and have enjoyed your first days out there. Will be praying for you lots!

Hi Bendy
Trust you to find rainbow coloured cereal. We all miss you (especially Matt who wants his Wendy back) but we're also glad that you're safe and well and happy. May this continue, after you've been there for nearly a week now is their house still beutiful? Can you e-mail either your Dad or myself as you forgot to leave your e-mail address for us. Does the new Kenyan sim card mean it doesn't cost you anything if we text you? We love you loads and Matt sends 6 big hugs and 11 big kisses. Take care honey.

milk in a cardboard pyramid?! Such an alien concept. I think milk should be stored in cows. And that cows should be stored inside other cows.

Message to lesalanos who I probably dont know, but might do. depends who you are. At CHMC we store teenage boys inside cows dont we Wendy.

I have the photos to prove it - they are on CD, I will make sure you get copies when you get back
