Hello from sunny Meru. Had a nice lie-in and breakfast after a tiring day travelling about 400km up the road from Nairobi. Planning to swim soon. Visiting school to meet principal and getting bearings around Meru.
Yesterday was interesting. The ride up to Meru was crazy. We were driven in a matatu- a minibus- and the traffic was mental. There were too many speedbumps to count and occasionally spikes on the road. However it didn't slow the driver down!!! Then the heavens opened just when we arrived for lunch on the way. The restaurant turned into a swimming pool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
By the end of the journey (after crossing the Equator) with a combination of tiredness, boredom and too many E- numbers/sugar from a few sips of Coke, Matthew went slightly insane and Danielle had to confiscate his camera and his hat before she had to chuck him out the back of the bus into the rain. LOL!
When we finally arrived we were greeted by surprise by Margaret with a BIG hug. Thiiri Centre is really nice.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx :):):):):) xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Jambo! Glad you've arrived safely in Meru. I hope Matthew has got his camera back because I am relying on you guys to take good photos - Mrs K usually leaves this to Mr K for a reason... (sorry Mum!) Hope the singing practise is going well for tomorrow x

Hi All, Glad to hear that you all arrived safely after the long journey. The blogs and comments have cheered us up this morning having just watched the Scotland vs England game. Still proud of Scotland though they played a great game. Looking forward to the photographs once you've had a chance to post them. Have a wonderfule day. Watch out for the water snakes in the swimming pool Mrs K (only joking). Ann and Tom xx
