Nairobi to Kisii

Greetings from Nairobi. We got in last night and stayed at the beautiful Fairview Hotel across the street from the Israeli embassy. We awoke early this morning for an amazing breakfast and then went into Nairobi to buy instruments to take to the students of the Okari School. We bought a bunch of acoustic guitars, some congas and percussion instruments and a keyboard. We also met up with Bill's friend Michael, a local guitarist and songwriter who led us all in a rousing sing-a-long in the matata as we rode from the streets back up to our hotel. The crew and our terrific driver Alex is currently loading up the van (which is totally packed to the gills) and preparing for our ride west to the village of Kisii. We'll be there for four nights working with the kids there.
