Rainforest Retreat

At the beginning of Thanksgiving week William and I took my parents and sister to our favorite getaway, the Rondo Retreat, in the Kakamega rain forest. We spent several days hiking, relaxing, and taking in God's amazing creation. Here are some highlights.


Dad taught William how to play chess.

One morning we went for a long hike and climbed a peak in the middle of the forest. It was quite a climb but the view was worth it!

Ashley was thrilled that we got to see bats inside a cave.

This rain forest is full of monkeys. This one is a colobus.

Michelle, Looking at these photos of Kakamega brings back many fond memories. Glad to hear that God is strengthening your soul and that your family is being blessed by seeing the work and life you live. Don Rogers
