Strenuous negotiations to get our container

sh. Since two months a container with school supplies and gifts for Kenyan children is blocked in Nairobi. So today we drove another time to Nairobi to speak with several offices to release the container at an acceptable price. I also had to explain them what the Rhein-Valley Hospital does. Finally they promised us that we will get the needed document by tomorrow. Let's hope for the best! After a whole day of wandering from one instance to the other we started our trip back at 5 pm and drove through the Rift Valley towards Nakuru. We drove over two mountains with 2600 m altitude and experienced all aspects of Kenya from city smog to beautiful landscapes.
