Friday Night with the Five Kennys

Erica and Aaron invited us to join them for dinner and then to stay overnight at their home.
Friday night dinner is always "Tacos"! Everything but the beans was homemade and extremely delicious. Erica is an excellent cook and her brownies are to die for!
Before dinner, Emma and Tristan taught us a new card game called "Golf"! We had a great time playing with them. After dinner, the 6 of us played a card game called "President". It too was a lot of fun with Don and Joy never becoming "President". The person with the most cards at the end of each game becomes the "Scully"....which is like being the servant of the President ...this is the position that Don and I held the most!!
Everyone went to bed fairly early. Don stayed up until midnight working on his pictures. Don took advantage of Erica's computer to download some pictures onto our blog.
If you go back to the following posts you will see some of his pictures: Amboselli, Three of The Big Five and Return to Nairobi.
One of the reasons that we stayed overnight with the Kennys is that it is not safe to travel, even by car, at night. There have been many recent carjackings.
Their apartment, as many homes and apartments are, is gated with a 24/7 security guard. There is also a 24/7 security guard and a gated entrance to Heart Lodge.
