Ah the coast!!

Went to the coast this weekend, to Malindi with 9 friends (Dana, Tia, Ian, Kevina, Njorge, Jeff, Natalia, Ash, and Beth)!  We decided to rent a house vs. staying in a hotel and it was a great way to go.  When Dana, Jeff and I arrived at the house from the airport we were convinced we had come to the wrong location.  I actually had to call friends who were already there to make sure we were at the right place.  

The house slept 10 people, had its own cook and maid, large lounge room, and amazing view of the water from our deck.  All in all it was the perfect place to be for the weekend with great friends.

Saturday, Tia and I went diving and had amazing visibility, great weather, and an awesome dive. I forgot how beautiful diving in Watamu is, so it was great to check it out again!

On our way back from the coast, I realized how much I am going to miss Kenya.  It has been a great home for the past two years and a part of me wants to stay, whereas a part of me is ready to move on to something new.  I think this is the feeling my parents had each time they had to leave a country.  I remember my mom telling people on PEI, "If I had the choice I would have lived in Pakistan the rest of my life".... let's just say that went over everyone's head in good ole PEI :)  I hope to make the most of each day and moment in Kenya until I depart- more trips, time with friends, enjoying the life that Nairobi offers, and leaving a wonderful country on a high note.
