Touring Nakuru

ak. Today we did a brief tour through the highlands of Nakuru where the wealthy locals live in their villas and send their children to the many local private schools. However, in stark contrast, within this same area is the town's IDP (internally displaced persons) camp, which houses over 14,000 people. Here we stopped to take some pictures with the children. It was moving to see that children who have so little can still smile so brightly! Photo: Alex Keller
