Alert! It looks like we'll be spending at least an additional week in Nairobi. While we had planned to head out to the Vihiga District on July 31, our hosts have suggested that we delay the trip a bit. Apparently there is an upcoming election in the District that will decide a quite controversial issue (whether to adopt a new constitution). Since the last time such a controversial election was held in Kenya some violence broke out, we are going to stay in Nairobi until all the dust settles. Once the election is over, we'll head out there as planned.
