Field trip for some of Omwabini classes

The school year here in Kenya runs until the second week in November. This year there is a bit of a last minute scramble to prepare students for the year end government exams because some time was lost due to a teachers strike earlier in the year. This will give me some time to help revive some of the equipment in bad need of repair.

Sunday afternoon we accompanied a class on a field trip to a interesting spot near a town that is about an hour away called Kitale.  This place that can be best described as a cross between the former Renfrew's Storyland and a Ripley's believe it or not museum. Its main attraction is a collection of animals that have abnormalities and are cared for and displayed at this place.

                                                                                                                                                                                              Four legged chicken

This outing also gave some of the orphans a first time opportunity to walk through a department store and see "just what is out there."

                                              There are no nuclear power plants nearby so I not sure what happened
