Humming Bird Tour Comes to an end!


Mr. Pedersen on tour arriving in Waikiki last month.

Obviously a gap in my blogging:  I promise myself and you, dear follower, proper updates on all things Liberia-and-in-between to my arrival here in Nairobi.

Gosh I owe so many updates! Follow-ups! Mamie! Andrew! And gosh Alaska and Kansas City - ooh Sacramento and Salt Lake City! 

View to the south from Provo, just outside Salt Lake City.


But today: Nairobi indeed…Mr. Pedersen is in Nairobi – how blessed am I? What a wonderful and cosmopolitan city – I feel a little out of place and hope to gather my urban wits and catch up as fast as I can to this vibrant city!

Only three nights and already I have learned so much, too much – I am adjusting, acclimating, energizing, and looking forward to engaging all things Nairobi – which is A LOT, maybe TOO much!
Lucky for me, our Zanzibar-decor-inspired home is a refuge from the bustling city – a quiet and lovely spot in an idyllic neighborhood: the best of both worlds!



More to follow, as experiences are happening at a rapid pace  –  and yes I have already been to the local produce market – and since Kenya is the “bread-basket” to Europe, again: the BEST of Both Worlds!

Breakfast today: red papaya and mini bananas drizzled with local honey – YES! Oh, you KNOW that the watermelon here actually TASTES like watermelon, juicy, sweet, and fragrant: MY FAVORITE!


And yet, we will be enjoying asparagus with dinner this evening! And the list goes on I tell you – ooh tree tomatoes! TREE TOMATOES! 


Flowers welcoming me !
