  1. Memories from Lamu - playing dominos with wazee on the waterfront as the sun set. Turns out I'm not bad--won my first game!

  3. To the youth and community of Githunguri: Wonderful discussion last week, good questions. Keep pushing for responsible government!
  4. Two historic events today: the release of the draft constitution, and a national youth summit with participants from every constituency.
  5. Wonderful day in Kapenguria last week for the Tegla Loroupe Peace Race. Tegla is an inspiring Kenyan hero working hard to promote peace.

  19. Amazing that the Kenyan government thinks that our efforts to support the Kenyan public's demands for reforms are "interference!"
