Mt. Elgon Hotel
Today mainly consisted of over eager bzugu's (swahili for white folk) milling about Mt. Elgon Hotel in bright yellow shirts spontaneously shaking a stranger's hand while loudly and cheerfully declaring “You are most welcome!”
So many contributed in various ways to prepare for this day. Putting the participant binders together took a team of 10 adults – and I literally mean just stacking the preprinted papers up and putting them in a binder. It seems we are A.) Really excited that the big day has finally arrived B.) Nervous that everyone will notice the misspelling on page 27 in the binders C.) Slightly sleep deprived or D.) On the verge of a nervous breakdown.
Despite our best efforts, the conference seems to be off to a great start. But then again, the first meetings are just about to begin.
