I LOVE YOUR OUTFIT! On the first day of our stay in the Whitesands Hotel in Mombasa, Valerie saw a woman, about her age and said to her “I love your outfit!” The woman said, “You know I was about to say the same thing to you”. You just never […]
We left our hotel early this morning to make the 2 1/2 trek to visit Kathy Pryor and our friends at the YWAM base in Likoni. Even though it was 7:30am it was hot and muggy and the roads were a mess. On the journey to Likoni we pass through […]
