Words from Kenya

 MONDAY, OCT 19TH,
 
Several new worlds have opened up for me in a week.  

1) The lovely landscape of Kenya.  
2) Peeking into the world of medicine (not my profession) and eavesdropping on the conversations of a superb group of doctors and nurses, speaking an intriguing new language (for me.) 
3) Working with warm, friendly, lively Kenyan doctors, nurses, and patients in Nyabondo last week, and Muhoroni this week. 

An added bonus: giving some author talks to the liveliest group of schoolgirls I've ever met!  (I'm a children's author.) 
I've barely begun to process what it all means.
