We've Arrived in Kenya!

We have now arrived safely in Nairobi and will be leaving for Kisumu tomorrow. We are leaving a day earlier because our contact at ICRAF in Nairobi was not able to meet us on the 2nd. Earlier today we bought our bus tickets so we'll be heading out around 7am!
 
Our stay in London was short and very cold, but we still managed to explore quite a bit of the touristy areas! We saw Tefalger (sp?) Square, the National Art Museum, Parliament and its surrounding buildings, the river, and then Nick, Anna, and myself went up into the London Eye for an amazing view of the city.
 
While we were buying our Underground tickets in London we randomly ran into the EWB-UW Rwanda group! They had a similar layover to ours and ended up spending the day in the Natural History Museum.
 
We have met up successfully with our advisor Sam Dunlap and today we explored Nairobi with him. We got some food, went to the roof of the second tallest building in the city (3rd tallest in Africa), and explored many of the nicer parts of town. Its extremely hot here right now but it was a nice change from the extreme cold of Wisconsin and London.
 
Our next update will come after we're at our destination in Orongo!
