We’re doing well (at least, I hope that’s what the title says). Yesterday we all went out to Kiboko Bay, a nice hotel/restaurant/resort on the shores of Lake Victoria in Dunga, just west of Kisumu. Not having a car, we travelled there by boda-boda. This is usually fine, but after 30 minutes each way on the back of a bike in blazing sunshine, the merits of cars and air conditioners become crystal clear. Hannah and I are rather pinker than usual! Tommy had great fun, as you can see from the photos at the end of this post. Unfortunately, he got a bit previous and just before we set off, he and Omundi jumped into the paddling pool we left out over night (see photo above).

Tommy and Omundi enjoying their breakfast. Omundi refuses regular uji (made with maize) now, and demands porridge oats every morning. As you can see, it goes down a treat!

So, we’re back, our blogs up again (mostly) and life continues for us in sunny Kisumu. There are a few changes though. Just as we returned, school broke up for Summer. Now I have tommy with me for the whole day. I’m in the process of arranging rotating play dates so that he doesn’t get too bored and I don’t go loopy. Luckily we now have another resident in the house, Omundi, who Tommy can play with. I’ll let Hannah talk about that later though (she promises to actually put a post up later today). If you look in the side bar, there should be a little picture of Omundi there. If you click on it, it will take you to our Flickr account where you can see larger versions of the images and comment on them, if you like.
