Six Giraffes Later

I can officially say that I've seen a family of giraffes... and they weren't in the zoo. In fact, they were about a half mile outside of the entrance to Daystar. I was on the bus heading back from Nairobi as the sun was setting. We turned off from the main road onto the dusty dirt road towards Daystar and saw lots of zebra and wildebeest, which wasn't unusual. Then I saw a giraffe near the road followed by a group of them and I was so excited because my friends and I like joke about seeing a giraffe, and finally we did. Besides the cats wandering around campus, there are monkeys and other rodents, both of which I do not know the specific name. One day I was reading a book in the middle of campus and little fruits kept falling from the tree above me. I couldn't figure out what was knocking them off (and practically chucking them at me), until I saw the monkey leave the tree. Haha.

Enough of the animals... and now to a real topic: soccer. haha. okay, so Goodness and I are on Daystar mens soccer team. They didn't really have cuts (at least not yet) but surprisingly we are really well respected and welcomed by the coaches, captains, and players. We attend practice and we will be at the games too. Obviously, we are not as strong or as fast as the others, but we work hard and most importantly enjoy it. I am enjoying getting fit again, although I am sore.

Here is my address in Athi River, if anyone ever decides that snail mail still exists. The other address I posted earlier can still work, but this one is better.
