Thus far it has been a great trip! Mombassa is a coastal city, and the Sassers live right on the Indian Ocean, so there has been lots of swimming, and floating around in the very warm waters. I couldn't have wished for better company to enjoy the beautiful scenery with, Chris and Katie Sasser and their boys are super laid back, easy to talk to, and just fun to be around. I am so thankful for the amazing people God has put in my life during my time in Africa.
One of the cool things about this area are the Massai that you can see walking around in town, or on the beach. On Sunday we were at a restaurant where we got to see some traditional Massai dancing, while I felt pretty touristy, it was awesome to be able to see something so completely different from anything else I've ever seen, and something that I know can only be seen in this area of Africa.
Tomorrow we are going to visit Blessed Camp, the leper colony that Action Ministry works with, bringing education, medical care, and God's love to people who society had labeled as outcasts. I'm super excited to see all that has been done at Blessed Camp, and see how God is changing lives in that community!
