Tips and other useful ideas

On the train

Posted on March 11, 2008 by Len Mason

While in Amsterdam, we had some time to take a train to go visit with Kevin Jacobson. He currently lives in The Hauge. He is there taking Dutch lessons before he takes off for Suriname. We were able to have dinner with him before continuing on to Kenya. The picture here is a field of flowers I saw from the train. I thought they were tulips, but maybe they were just dafodils. No disrespect to dafodils.

Just Landed in Amsterdam

After about seven hour flight (maybe more?) we have made it to our layover. Travelling on Daylight Savings Day is not a good idea. Jetlag plus losing an hour of sleep already could prove to be interesting.

Getting Ready for Kenya

Posted on March 4, 2008 by Len Mason
Well, we have reached the final week before our trip to Kenya. The political climate has calmed down and our trip is back on. Tim Frakes and I are making our finishing touches to the agenda. I will be blogging during my trip, so stay tuned. Please let your friends and colleagues know that they are welcomed to subscribe to this blog. The attendees to the Training will be posting their projects to a blog as well. I will share those addresses with you as they become available. We are all very excited!

Teaching Opportunity in Kenya

Posted on November 27, 2007 by Len Mason

In January, I will be traveling to Nairobi, Kenya to teach Video Production for the Web to four Lutheran churches in Africa. I will have more info soon, but right now I am just making sure I am ready to go. I renewed my passport (it arrived yesterday, horrible picture), am checking on what I need to take, and setting up my means of communicating with you all while I am there. I just installed an app from Shozu.com that allows me to moblog from my phone, without using the laptop. (Photo: Wikipedia)
