First Class!

Hello all!

    I taught my first class at the Primary School today.  It was Physical Education.  We took the first three classes of the school (grades 1-3) outside for their thirty-five minute class and taught them how to play kickball!  They picked it up quickly, and loved it!  We used one of the new kick balls that was donated!


In this picture, I was explaining to them that if the ball was kicked in the air, and caught, then the runners had to go back to their bases before the ball got there.  Teaching is quite an awesome experience.  In the background is the primary school.

Below are pictures of Mt. Kenya and the sunrise from the Summit of Mt. Kenya!


Mt. Kenya is the second peak in from the left.  It was a rather hard climb, and it was in total over 40km.  This picture was taken at almost 12,000 ft.  We had already hiked quite a ways just to get there.  


This is the sun coming over the horizon from the summit of Mt. Kenya.  It was a beautiful sight.  It was definitely worth pushing the extra meters to get to the top.

I will write more soon, and thanks again for reading!

God Bless,

        Kevin
