AHHHHHHH.....

Pretty much couldn't be happier right now. I am on the Island of Lamu off the coast of Kenya ( no, war is over, power sharing agreement signed and Kofi Anan arriving for more mediating tomorrow). Lamu is an island that has somehow escaped the progress of time. There are no cars...transportaion is either a dhow (local wooden boat) or a donkey or by foot. The buildings reflect the coastal Swahili Arabic style...just gorgeous..blue blue waters...and get this...the hotel where I am staying has flown in a European sushi chef for the week!!! The godesses are smiling on me. I will write more as I will have time this week between my snorkeling trips and reading any of the 6 books I brought...oh and this guy is teaching me windsurfing...life is rough sometimes....but not now.
Peace,
Sarah
