So I leave for the coast tomorrow. I have tried to contact the travel agent today to book a ticket home... but haven't heard back from her! So maybe I'll be stuck in Malindi for a few weeks... I guess there are worse places to be stuck.
I have to get my head around "coast" mode. It's a spiritual retreat with one of the other branches of the organization I work for, so there are times for worship and a speaker. And I really want this week to be a spiritual retreat for me, not just a week of bumming around on the beach :) I think I need some good refreshing before I head back to my normal work up there in the heat and dust! So please pray with me that it will be a good week, that I won't be distracted by all the fun and all the other people there, but will be able to take the time alone with God that I need to really be deeply spiritually refreshed, and not just refreshed on good food, fruit juice and pool parties!
At the moment, my head is already back in my normal work - Jackie and I had an all day meeting with some consultants who are real experts in multilingual education and in the sorts of things that we're trying to set up in the education system up there. It was great to be able to get some of their feedback and talk to them a bit more about it all. Gives me a bit of excitement and encouragement to get back into it after these few weeks of concentrating on my course!
I also miss my cat, so I'm stating to really look forward to getting back "home"!
But tomorrow, on to the coast!

Where? We just love Turtle Bay and Hemmingway's has that kitschy touristy feel. I've also heard great things about the snorkeling.
Have fun.
