Swimming in the desert

Greetings from Turkana! I'm unable to post this myself so Marielke is taking a message back for me to post in Kisumu.
We have had an amazing time here, it has been like walking in a dream for all of us. John and Peter took us to Eliye Springs on Lake Turkana and it truly was a paradise. There was a beautiful beach, palm trees waving in the breeze, a warm lake to play in with flamingos, goats, and camels in the background.
We camped there on the lake and spent the evening gazing at the stars. John and I played catch with the palm tree pods and Emily taught Peter how to play hacky-sack. We swam a lot in the lake, playing crocodile & fish, snake and giraffe, and we taught John and Peter Marco Polo. I'll write again in a few days.
