Last Day in Kenya

L:

We already posted about receiving the girls' visas on Friday. Boy were we all rejoicing!

After spending the morning at the embassy or in the hotel room, we were all ready to get out and walk around the city for a little while. When we were just about ready to go back to the hotel room to get ready for checkout time, torrents of rain fell and the thunder almost knocked us off our feet a couple times. It was actually very fun, but we had to get out of our hotel room so that we wouldn't get charged for another night. We finally had to run out in the rain when it let up a little. We were pretty soaked by the time we made it back to the hotel and we were pretty much out of clean laundry. Everyone had a pretty good attitude about it all, though. We used the hair dryer to dry off a little and found some clean, dry socks to change into. It really didn't take that long for us to be completely dry again.

After checkout, we had one final meal in Nairobi and headed to the airport. Checking in at the airport was not Tryana and Kalysta's favorite time. We were concerned that it was going to be a VERY LONG trip home with the start we had there. However, our flights went much better than anticipated. Again, we were very thankful.
