Hello From Kenya!

Heyyy everybody!
I'm in Kenya!!! It is absolutely gorgeous here. Breathtaking.
So when I left Frankfurt, Saturday morning I flew to Zurich it was a short  flight. We landed at 8:55am my connecting flight began boarding AT 8:55. I landed in concourse A and had to book it through security, customs, and a ride on a train to get to concourse E where my flight to Kenya took off at 9:40. I made to the gate at 9:30! Finding my seat, I sat down out of breath and buckled up. The flight was six hours and was very comfortable, it was my first time flying on Swiss airlines and it was a great experience. I watched "I Am Number Four" "Country Strong" and "Beauty and the Beast". All of them are great, "I Am Number Four" kept me on the edge of my seat  and I was crying my eyes out in "Country Strong".
As we were landing I had the biggest grin on my face, I was finally back in Africa and in a new country. The scenery was beautiful as we made our descent-the sky a nice pink and dark blue mix, the mountains and hills, and the greenery. I made my way off the plane, through customs/immigration, and headed down to baggage claim only to find out that my small suitcase didn't make the transfer. I had to file a claim and the airport is delivering it today.
Last night after my second family picked me up we went to the mall to get dinner, a restaurant called Art Cafe.
Anyways today my second mama and I went to her office, then we took a 30 minute walk around the Embassy, went to the commissary, and the grocery store. Kenya is so well developed and reminds me so much of South Africa. Must write this country on your bucket list!
Toodles!
