Ensonorua

This morning we went down, down, DOWN into the Great Rift Valley towards Magadi. It was a very warm and sunny day and the farther down in the valley we went the warmer and dryer it got. They are having a drought here right now and the grass and shrubs are brown and crunchy and in a lot of areas there is nothing but dust and rocks. Our clinic went well in Ensonorua, we did not have alot of people show up and actually were able to head back to the Division Guesthouse a couple hours early. The people appreciated what we did and our lay workers did a great job helping us out.

On the way home we stopped under a big tree and ate lunch with some goats... they were so thirsty that I shared my little bottle of water with all 21 of them. We gave the people nearby our large containers of water.

Once we got back to the Division office we packed all of our things up for the trip to the Mara - and even got to put it all on the overland vehicle so we are ready to head out bright and early tomorrow.

Breakfast on Monday is at 5:30 am and the hope is to be on the road by 6 am. We will be heading to the Maasai Mara National Reserve to do 4 more clinics. There is no electricity where we will be so I wont be able to put anything on the blog until Sept 8th.

Once again thanks for keeping us in your prayers and please continue to pray for us as we travel about 5-7 hours tomorrow.
