Our day started again with breakfast before we saw one of our friendly wildlife creatures upside down...
So after a long and very bumpy ride we found ourselves at Mbirikani site and we were able to compare and constrast the benefits of irrigation.
It is amazing to see God's work in the earth and how blessed the earth is.
Our visit at the farm ended at the other site about 120 acres of land well irrigated
The girls admired the sunflower...
After our day at the farm we visited our first table banking group Ncurbi SHG.
It was quite amazing to see the works these small people where able to start regardless of their current condition, they pushed beyond all the boundaries and start, they are never too old to learn and do...
Uba and Pastor P addressed the members....
After the table banking meeting we stopped at the supermarket and bought some treats which we feasted on after dinner before we reflected on our day and had bible study....

The following was extracted from one of the diaries of a cloverleaf missionary:
"So we visited a land today to road there was 'bumpa-to-bumpa sha'.... the land was so beautiful all that we were able to see the crops and domestic animals. They say irrigation strategy will work so there land can flourish. After we went to our first table banking meeting was great to see the small beginnings of the great things that are to come... In this Kenya they didn't have Mcvities they had Manji's instead NA WA oooooooo on the plus side Fanta is finally the colour I know it to be YAY!!!. I-Go voices composed their first song (Totally Sold out to you) and did a remix of one we learnt already from the church we went to on Sunday (Baraka zamungu)."
