Nairobi, Kenya

So to the last entry..... We crossed the border at Moyale, a typical small border town of rural Northern Kenya. We camped in the backyard of the local police station and ate in the Moyale prison canteen!!

Rebecca Hi Guys, So, you think you've had bad weather! We've had at least a dusting of snow these past two days in Portsmouth and the whole country has come to a stand still. It's a bit embarrassing actually, I spun the car out on the light snow dusting on the way to work, which caused my hazard lights to lock on permanentaly as the car thought it had been in an accident. I then had to give up and get Maury to drive me in to work. How feable is that! I have no idea how you have coped driving through snow blizzards. I'm really enjoying reading about your adventures and seeing the photos. Have a great time in Syria. Love Rebecca
