Look out Nairobi. Here we come!







We can't believe it's already time to leave for Kenya. Tomorrow we will meet Mwenda, who was director of the St. Lawrence University Kenya Semester Program when we were students, in Nairobi.

We've done a lot of sleeping in London, which we like to attribute to jetlag. But around all the sleeping we have:

Met dancers from the Royal Academy of Dancing who took us to an underground salsa club where we were forced to dance until 5:00am

Walked by the London Eye

Gone to an arcade

Walked by the House of Parliament and Big Ben

Met with a documentary filmmaker and nurses from Alexis' mother's work

Attended a Bangladeshi Menhdi party (pre-wedding party) for Alexis' mother's co-worker



Went for a few at a pub with a typical New Yorker photographer living in London

Got sick from eating take-away kebab



Gone to Shrewsbury, Shropshire to visit with Lex's aunties and uncles

Had high tea at Alexis' Uncle Dick and Gail's house

Been hosted by Mel, Steve, and Oscar
