Blessings from Kenya post election turmoil
Two months after we were assigned in Baraton, we must be evacuated to Nairobi because Baraton and the surrounding Eldoret area experienced such horrible killings and burnings. It was a terrible experience, especially during the time we were evacuated. We must passed a long road blockade and watched people burning cars and houses.
We were saved by a drunk angel who recognized us as Baratonian. I called him drunk angel because I could smell his breath and see how wild his eyes was when he inspected us, however only with his assistance we managed to come out of the angry mob and safely reached the airport.
We spent about 3 weeks at the Indonesian's embassy compound as refugees, but it was during this period that we really enjoyed our unplanned vacation and the result was my family portrait sketches I did using pencil and ball-pen.
