Every-Day-Life in Nairobi!!

This is "The Junction". It is one of the places
where we get groceries. It is really nice. It is like
a Mall, and it has a "Nakumatt" (the biggest and best
grocery store in Nairobi)...a chain, a monopoly really.
We try to leave the office at 3:00 Fri. afternoon to do
our shopping. We try to beat the 'go-home' traffic.
Even so, it takes us a long time to go a few miles,
and we don't usually get home until 6-7:00, and it is
dark by 7:15, and we have to be home by dark. These
photos show how Elder Pugs loads the "Gutless-Wonder"
with about $100.00 + worth of groceries...yes, they
are expensive, and we do not eat fancy....but we are
grateful we have stores.....



Yep!! They have a KFC at the Junction...actually
not too bad...they only have two in Nairobi, and they
just opened about 6 months ago!

These guys are cleaning out the rain gutters at
the Center. The "Center" houses the Upper Hill Ward,
The Mission Offices, The Public Affairs Office,
Humanitarian Services, PEF, CES, Elder Usi's Office, Temporal Affairs Offices, and all Budget Offices. It
is a pretty big complex, and they keep it very clean,
and the yards are beautiful. Needless to say it stands
out in the neighborhood....a VERY good thing!!
