This is the Hospital ground with the tent camp

Today marked the last day of our stay in Nakuru, that means of Nicolas Senn, his mother, Gaby from the Swiss TV and myself (Stephan). Tonight we will return back to Switzerland via Nairobi. We had again an active day giving out the food for many refugees in the hospital area. It is always a big task to handle the masses but Ruth Schäfer has the needed poise together with a hidden firmness to keep the situation under control. As a last excursion Nicolas and myself went a little up the mountain to make some shots from the Rhein-Valley Hospital ground with the tent camp.
