Coast Visit Part 3 - Malindi

After lunch on the Saturday I left the Kilifi sports day to head up to Malindi about 1.5 hours in a matatu in the mid day sun!!

I checked in at my hotel the Comfy Palace Guest House (1200 bed and breakfast for a single room) Very nice and clean and in the central part of town. A quick shower, clean shirt - wet from sweat in 5 minutes - getting used to that now! Then I met Joe from the UK and Yvonne from Kenya who are the programme supervisors in this location. We then set off to Watamu where the volunteers were having a "social afternoon on the beach having planted mangroves on an island in the morning. This was a nice relaxed forum to meet the team. We met on Garoda Beach which is just south of Watamu Bay.


Much fun was had as you can see!












The next day was Sunday so nothing much on from a work perspective so chilled out and went to the beach. 

Monday was visits to volunteer homes and placements for photos. I visited TOSHA youth group ; which stands for Tradition Of Social and Healthy Awareness where they were making flip-flops decorated with intricate beads. 

And then Visions Magnet Theatre Group
