Berenike in Berkeley

Today Mommy and Aki and I met an old friend in new territory.  Nike is a German student studying at Berkeley, just down the road from our house.  Two years ago she volunteered at Cradle of Love in Usa River and took care of Akira when he was a baby.  Last summer she came to Arusha again to volunteer and I got a chance to meet her. 

Today, we met her for a healthy, Berkeley-like lunch of veggie soup, salads and sandwiches.  Then, we headed to the science center where they have a section just for kids!  It was sooo fun and great to see her.  She seems to be really enjoying her time in America (we are too!). 

Thanks for taking time during finals to hang out with us Nike and a HUGE special thank you for taking care of my big brother when he needed it most.

  1. How wonderful! We love going to OMSI here for the kids' science playgrounds and the fun experiments. And how great to catch up with an old friend!
