The girls are all gone so I have the house to myself. I figured this would be a good time to upload some more pictures of the people I was so blessed to meet.
The Kenyan part of Team 3:
The whole Team 3!
Is this little guy cool or what?!
These young girls seemed to enjoy hanging around and watching me work (and joke with them). They stood there for about 3 hours!
This is Jane, a wonderful Kenyan lady who was on the team. She's holding an avocado -- which she said was on the small side:
This is the lady who hugged me hard and then said, "I'll see you in Heaven!". I love her.
This is Derrick, one of our translators. He was awesome! He's studying to be a pastor.
This was a large group of school kids who waited hours to see the eye dr. They swarmed me to look at their pictures. Oh, and check out the boys on the right front --- just goes to prove that teenage boys are teenage boys in any country!
This lady was so happy with her glasses that she kept shaking my hand!
Lining up:
This lady was one of my very favorites:
Is she wonderful, or what?! She loved looking at her picture:
This guy was sooo happy! He said, "Now I can go home and read my Bible!"
Believe it or not ....
....this guy is 103 years old! I need to eat whatever he eats!!
This lady was in her 90's:
After I took this picture she reached out for me to hold her -- I was happily surprised!

Your photographs really complete the story. The beautiful smiles and EYES of the people you met and helped really moved me. I loved the fun photos of the school kids also. What joy they have! It is amazing how clean and nice everyone looks including their clothes after seeing the facilities and water you had to bathe in. Thanks so much for sharing your experience. Natalie
What beautiful people. How did you manage to come back without one of those adorable kids?

I love the 103 year old man and the woman with no teeth! What a cool experience. Did you see any wildlife? :)
