Mark's Birthday!

Mark's Birthday ... (was just over a week ago ... but we haven't had access to add anything til now!!) was really nice!! - we had a lazy morning ... then phone calls from home (the only time we were away!!) ... and then we went to the MEAT restaurant that we mentioned in a previous post!! - we had beef and chicken (nothing too unusual there!!) and then Ostrich Meatballs ... Camel ... and Crocodile!!! We liked the Ostrich ... the Camel was just like a dry beef ... but the Croc was our least favourite ... it tasted like fatty pork ... but had a very distinctive twang to it!! In the afternoon we went to the Masaai Market and had fun haggling over prices of various things ... Jenny didn't let them get away with ripping us off too much ... they got more than they bargained for when they tried to sell at too high a price to her!! When we got to Kakamega a couple of days later to visit our friends the Amukoa's ... Lucy and Andrew has organised a cake for Mark we had a little birthday celebration on arrival!! Left to Right - Andrew, Lucy, Mark, Carol, Sally and Elon!! ... and they also bought Mark a birthday African shirt!! Here's Mark and Lucy outside the Amukoa's front door!!
