Adventure Tour Day 2 & 3

On Monday the group met county government officials and learned something of the challenges facing Kenya as power is devolved from the central government to the counties. We had lunch with memebrs of the Tembo-Kenya advisory committee.

On day 3 we ventured out to a rural school where the children entertained us with poems and songs focused on their Virtues.

We were then warmly welcomed by two community groups who explained what they were doing with their people and provided us with a typical African meal: arrowroot, ugali (pudding) made of millet or maize meal, various greens (pumpkin leaves, cow peas, spinach) roasted bananas and yams. 

The men had to join the dance

The women could watch
