The last week has been a pretty big adventure. On Friday I drove with Sunthar to the opening of a water tank. We ended up parking in the wrong place and people were sitting all over the front of our car. The speeches went for over an hour and we were going to be really late getting back so I had to clear the people off the hood of the car to make an escape but the engine wouldn't start. To make a long story short we had to wait for another 30 mins then we were watched by an audience while I started the car, stalled a few times and finally made it out.

We then went to Nairobi. Cool town, we stayed in a 1* hotel called the hotel Embassy. It was really shady but it was around 12 dollars per night in downtown so we put up with it. We went to a really good Ethiopian restaurant (you have to try Ethiopian food) then went to a bar. We went to the Maasai market next day, then went to another restaurant and another bar so it was a really good weekend.

Yesterday Sean and I went with some people from a non for profit called equals 3, who put up solar panels in remote areas. We set up a solar panel at the Lewa funded Laparua school, which is at the northern gate of Lewa in the valley. Really cool experience, then went to a waterfall for a swim in the afternoon.
