Another Farewell!


We also said farewell to our driver, Martin, this morning. Martin has driven us to and from Eastleigh everyday and anywhere else that we wanted to go. He has been an inspiration to us.
We learned a lot about him, his family and the Kenyan culture. He always had very wise comments to make when we said that we were concerned about an issue. Martin played wonderful, uplifting Christian music in his car which we also enjoyed when riding with him.
Martin, as many drivers do here in Kenya, took great pride in keeping his car shiny inside and out. If ever we were late, we would often find Martin shining his car. We always felt so bad everytime we took his shiny, clean car into Eastleigh where it is either muddy or dusty! Martin never complained though.
