Emily’s last trip to Africa was when she was in 4th grade.  She was 10 years old.  What an adventure.  We visited the Mpala research station (http://www.mpala.org/) and I installed a Linux system that they used as their server for years.  We helped setup some experiments, and explored the region via borrowed 4×4.  We also visited Solomon, a friend who offers Nairobi kids living on the street a home in an orphange run by the Church.  The orphanage is out in the countryside, in a beautiful and green area.  Emily and I will have a similar chance to help out with some kids in Botswana.  More later… we have to head to the airport in a few minutes.
