I'm Here!!!

hey everyone! I'm here and it's awesome!!!
we arrived in Nairobi safely with all our luggage (which was a miracle in itself!!!).
and we are now staying in a hostel type of place in Nairobi, and we are about to leave for Kimana, our destination!
yesterday we went to the slums...i know, you all are probably thinking, "of all places"!!!! but off al places thats where they most need help. so we did medical stuff there mostly and alot of music too! it was very fun and i loved it cause we got to help tons of people.
well, my battery is almost dead! so, i love you all and thank you so much for all your prayers!
Kwahari! (goodbye in swahili)
