The Sears

Yesterday we said good-bye to the Sears family as they headed out to Athi River where they will be visiting with Tim & Diane Bannister before returning to Canada.

This picture was taken at 5am last Saturday at our apartment (just before we departed for the bus station) Jane Ann was sporting one of the Kenyan dresses that she had brought back to Canada with her 25 years ago. The Somali women in Garissa got a real charge over the idea that some one would have clothing of such a vintage (most Somalis do not have outfits they store for long periods of time -- you just wear your clothing out and replace it).
