Water Testing In The Mara

The past two days we traveled to 3 places, Endonyo Erinka, Aitong, and Mara Rianta to take water samples from the rivers and tanks that the clinics and communities get their water from. We got to drive through the game park on our way to the destinations and we were able to see elephants. I was so excited-there were 4 adult elephants with 3 little babies. I really wanted to see elephants before we left, we couldn't stay for too long as one of the adults came towards us with his trunk raised....so we had to leave. Bummer!

The kids showed us where they got
their water supply from...yes, it was contaminated.

I'm watching 4 missionary children tomorrow and have some packing and cleaning to do before we head out on Saturday for our safari. We will head to Nairobi on Monday and will leave on our flight home around 11pm, Tuesday evening. I am excited to get back with the other teams from CMF, I'm thankful we'll have a few days to catch up and talk during debrief before I head back to Iowa. Wow, time flies!
