Adele in Nairobi, Adventurous.

HeLLo!!!
I am doing very very well! I am having a blast! Even have a tan i might add... no, no not to rub it in.. but..;) Well anyways... i left off last coming from Rwanda. So we went to the Sse Sse islands! We stayed at this dutch guys camping grounds and had a blast (100 bucks for everything)! The water was murky... but the sand was the whitest sand i have seen in all my life anywhere! Which i have to say needs to be white to compare to so many other beaches... So we basically spent a day getting there we were so wiped 9:30 am to 9:30 pm.. I don't know what i was thinking when i thought about how long it would take you know.. just take a ferry. uhmm yeah their ferries here are sooooo slow lol me and Mel had a good laugh over it all. We spent our days frolicking in the water tanning till we burned (sorry mom) listening to our ipods, eating and drinking. That is pretty much it. You basically lay around like a tub and do nothing. Although we played volley ball and sweat like pigs.. haha.. we stayed for 3 days, 4 nights. Met really neat ppl from the States, Barcelona, and England. Sat around the fire. Ok, then we headed on to Kampala, Uganda with 2 other travelers. We stayed a night met up with some of Mel's friends and hung out. Then we went the next day to Nairobi, Kenya! I love it here! So we came it took us 15 hours!! 3:30pm to 7:00 am! CRAZY! Ok then our window was broken on the bus, i was freeeezzing all night!! All the Africans were gesturing! hehe.. So we went to church the next day.. which is inside of a movie theater! It was full of music so loud i thought my ears were bleeding! Let me tell you the preaching did not get any quieter! Pastor Craig you would have loved it! (PS they did the hankie dance!!!! I love it) They wave their hankies in the air and don't care! You'd laugh, it's a good time.) So we were really in pain (our ears that is) so we decided to leave the service... not a good idear. We were in the very front actually separated from the rest of the congregation! Awkwardness lol.. So we were leaving and an usher said that 'mama' wanted to talk to us! We were like what?!!?! She was the preacher, teacher, singer, hardcore lady! We were ushered to her office and we waited... So she finally came and she said 'God told me when i saw you that you needed to be looked after'. So she payed for our lunch and we didn't go with her she sent one of her ushers to come with us (Ken is his name). We had fun... but we were so wiped from our travels.. Later that night in our hostel we met this cool guy named Andrew who is from England and teaching in schools and so on... very fun and passionate! Mel and I have been chilling with him with most of our free time. You'd all love him...Ok.. thing is about this lady Pastor Lucy is that she and her husband are heading up 250 churches across the coast. they have many orphanages. youth ministries!!! Oh and I forgot one thing, her husband is running for president over Kenya!! Talk about that. Ok so the next day we went to church again ( they have 2- 3 services each day, 7 days a week, and like 1 or 2 crusades a week). Sweet easter service! So much energy the people are so passionate! They have moved me to seek God more seriously and have also been an encouragement to me! What a wonderful (non fattening) easter. So then we were taken for lunch again. We spent the whole day with Ken and laughed sooooo hard its not even funny! He is crazy. Then we waited a long while to meet with Pastor Lucy. She came in and left. that was it... but we got to see her sons ministry! She had only said he did music for youth and i was like wow ok, thats neat. So we walk in and there are like 20 people in white suits! Serious suits! With top hats i might add. Then they told us that they are an R&B band! They rap, they have 3 cd's, they have music videos they travel all over Africa, they are on the radio always... so they proceeded to show us their videos and i tell you they are tight! I COULDN'T believe it. They were so insane! My jaw dropped! Seriously i was amazed! They travel and do skits, dances, preaching and all for youth! They are all 18-27 single.. blah blah, serious about God... Victoria! you need to come and meet up with these people. So anyways. We are getting copies of their stuff very excited. Love it here, we will be moving on sooner than later to the coast! Life is exciting, and God always makes a way! Thank you all for reading this! I hope you are all well and safe! Also that this is not boring you.. tehe, I do hope to hear from you.
Much love - Adele xo
