Nairobi

The view out my hotel window last night.  I feel like I'm on vacation! 

This post is coming from my cute hotel room in Nairobi where I have outlet and cables, yet I'm still having trouble with the internet.  I fear my blogging will drastically decrease once I arrive at my final destination.  I'll also probably have a few other things to do :)  I have a warm breeze coming through my balcony window and can hear singing, as if a church or school is nearby.  So awesome.

I'm ALMOST there!  My plane from Amsterdam to Nairobi was huge, like first class was on the 2nd floor huge.  I navigated the Nairobi airport without any trouble, miraculously.  First stamp in my passport, check!  My bag was maybe the last one of the plane, which got a little worrisome, but it eventually showed up.  My driver was right there and fabulous, and my hotel is so cute!

My 2012 New Year celebration is one to remember.  (From what I saw on Facebook, the hoosiers added another reason to celebrate!  I'm already so out of touch, haha.)  I nice Turkish businessman wanted to practice his English, so we chatted and he shared his Tusker with me, which is Kenya beer.  Not bad!  Then he offered me a foot-rub, and I decided it was time for bed instead.  Haha.

My body is very confused as to what time it is.  I got a good amount of sleep last night, but I'm not feeling 100%.  Hopefully a nice shower will help!  I fly out for Eldoret this evening, and apparently I'm supposed to be out of this room in the next 5 minutes...so it looks like an afternoon reading my Kindle in the hotel lobby is in order.  Ciao!  (I'm so international, haha)
