Holiday in Lamu, Kenya

I think "holiday" is my new favorite word. It just sounds so much more festive and happy than "vacation". Well, we just went on holiday with some friends from Tenwek. Without a doubt, Lamu, Kenya has one of the most beautiful beaches we have ever seen. Specifically, we were in an area called Kizingoni Beach which was only accessible by speedboat or dhow. We were spoiled with memorable fellowship with friends, great weather, and delicious seafood.


Dhow sailing is one of the main modes of travel in Lamu.


Lobster anyone?

Good friendships last a lifetime.

  1. Hi Dr. Popp!

    I was just catching up on all your family's adventures! Wow I can't believe your year is almost up! I thought of it because Cooper will be a year in July and you delivered him right before you left. He is doing wonderful by the way. He is scooting around finding crawling unnecessary :)

    I wish you all more sacred memories as you finalize your stay in Kenya!

    Best,
    Libby
