Hi!

We have been working very hard on our final presentation and report so I didn’t have a lot of time to update my blog, but here we go!

Since last post a lot of things happened:

 -We went to giraffe center and elephants orphanage in Nairobi. It was a wonderful experience because we feed the giraffes and they kissed us! haha. We also saw the orphaned baby elephants during their activities, it is very important that people don’t buy ivory since it is the leading cause of death for elephant moms. 

 -We walked around our beautiful town Machakos; we met new people and they were so friendly and smiley. Kids were awesome, we played with them and they were so happy. The landscape was beautiful and the weather just perfect. We will miss this town.

 -We had our mid term presentation with the customer and they were satisfied with the progress. We received valuable feedback so we worked on the improvements.

-We visited the school of the deaf and it was an amazing experience. Children taught us their signal language, they prepared an especial dance for us and they played a lot. We also worked hard in order to deliver something to the community so we plant some trees, we cut the grass, we cleaned the kitchen and dining area.

-What an amazing adventure we spent on last weekend! We hiked Ngong hills, walked with a giraffe herd, we visited Oloorkesalie prehistoric excavations, hot springs, Shompole community conservation area and Lake Magadi.

-This week we had our final presentation and currently we are working on our final report. A lot of work to do!
