Summer in January?

Summer in January

J and I are back in Nairobi after spending the holidays in the States.  I went from the Polar Vortex (-15F) to 85F degree weather in a matter of a week.  Thus begins our summer in what I have always endured as the darkest of the winter months (Jan-Mar).

I must admit, it is hard to remember that it is January since it is sunny and hot here right now.  

A new year filled with new adventures lie ahead for us.  The first of which is welcoming our first visitor at the end of this month.  A friend that we met during our travels in Nepal is going to spend 4 months traveling throughout E. Africa and will start and end his journey with us in Nairobi.

We are going to work on starting to explore our new home in 2014 which will hopefully lead to more exciting blog posts.  For now, I will leave you with a picture from our Thanksgiving in Nairobi, which was filled with new friends, great food, and lots of laughter.
