Kenyan Chai

Every morning, we start our day at 8am in the classroom with an educational morning report, grand rounds, or on wednesdays, a devotional by one of the long term missionaries. No matter what day though, 10:45 --- time for Chai and Mandazi (a kenyan donut).

Sometimes, the little breaks in each day are what we look forward to. For me, it's chai time and also after we finish ICU rounds from 9-10am, I have about 30min to an hour before chai time. During that hour, you might find me in the library with a thick reference book in front of me. That reference book is just so that I might glean something from it, but in reality, there is an htc evo smartphone with a kindle app opened on top of that reference book, and I am currently reading Brisingr, the third book of a trilogy, by Paolini.

In any case, it seems I'm the last one to the blog party. All our other friends here in the guesthouse seem to bring laptops to dinner and chatter silently on their keyboards their comings and goings. Here's some of the folks we have to come to call our family in Kenya.


Anyways, it's early here, Cheryl is still sleeping, but that's when the internet flies--- like 7Kb/seconds (only half the speed of 14.4 K modem from back in the day)!
