My ten top things that I will remember from Kenya:

1. Visit to New Life Home and all the babies! Specially Noah.
2. Steph Modder singing during our first service at ICC.
3. Visiting Anne and Kevin’s home in the slumbs at Eastleigh. 
4. That Grace and Terrace got up every morning to exercise. 
5. Bumpy bus rides through the streets of Nairobi.
6. Kichwa Tembo tented camp at Maasai Mara, my comfy feather pillow and seeing a zebra and lions for the first time.
7. The schools we visited with the Book of Hope ministry and the gift of dancing and singing that one little group of girls did for me and Theresa in one of the classrooms. 
9. Tanny Ho’s Mary Poppins-like bag, complete with 3 flashlights, sewing kit, and bubble wrap- I have to second this. 
10. John: The Team’s most valuable member in Kenya.
