I have to say that today was the best BEST day ever. After waking up and having some breakfast we finished up all of the final touches to the playground in Karundas. Once all of the bolts were tightened and everything we let the kids enjoy their new playground. I have to say it was one of the best feelings in the world. Even though majority of the kids had never seen or played on a playground before they figured it out very fast. Seeing their eyes sparkle and huge smiles just made all of the hole digging and prep worth it! I couldn't be happier with our team. We've come together and made everything happen in just 4 days! I'm so thankful to be able to experience something like this. Everyone makes you feel so comfortable and at home. Thanks to Mama Winnie and Mama Joy we've had some of the most delicious meals too. We've also been fortunate to work with such hardworking Kenyan men who are so eager to help us and also teach us some Swahili! Tomorrow we're going back to work at the boys home where we started at today. All of the posts have been put into place and it's starting to look like a playground. =) Thanks for all of the thoughts and prayers. Lala salama!
