Tonight I had dinner with my good friend Adrian who is going to "house-sit" while I am away. He's feeling at home in my office already! Here he is sitting at my desk!
Adrian's a great chap, he's a teacher with a heart for Africa. He's been to lots of countries there and I'm afraid to say that I'm not visiting one country in Africa on this trip. Next year perhaps!
Barack Obama never lived in Africa, but his father came from Kenya and he visited his father's village after his father had died. Quite a moving part of his book "Dreams from my Father". Kenya is a place for another trip, this time I will visit the places he grew up in Hawaii and Indonesia, and his home city of Chicago.
