Clinic at Olgume

Tuesday morning we headed out to Olgume for our second clinic day. We traveled down the escarpment into the Great Rift Valley, stopping briefly for pictures and a bathroom break, before heading off on a little dirt road to the village of Olgume on the side of Mt Suswa. We set up dental under the tarp of the truck, optical and wound care under trees and pharmacy in the church.

It was a busy day - and most of the academy kids had the opportunity to pull a tooth or two. As clinic neared the end a storm was building around us and you could hear the thunder and smell the rain. We quickley put things away and set up for supper in the church.

Everyone put up their tents before supper - and God blessed us by having the storm move west of us. Some of the academy kids joined in with the Maasai playing soccer and then we all settle down for a burrito and fruit salad supper before heading to bed for the night.

It had been a busy day - and everyone was tired. Tomorrow will be a big day for those climbing Mt Longonot.

Thanks for keeping us in your prayers -
kim
