Mama Lydia had brought Louise and I out for lunch one day to a place just down the street, called the Castle Inn. It's tucked away in a corner, but once you enter the gates, there are buildings upon buildings: different pubs; a place where you pick your dinner (you actually choose it from a pile of raw meat!); individual "shacks" with tables and chairs for private affairs; and patio tables with umbrellas scattered around the grounds. When we went with Mama Lydia, she recommended the pork chops which ended up being the best meat I think I have ever eaten in my life!! (ok...maybe a bit of an exaggeration...it was the first "meat" we had eaten since we had arrived in Kenya).
Anyways, we decided that this would be a great place for Louise's last night out, so last Saturday Kevin, Mama Lydia, Suzie and Lee (our new roommates) and I went to the Castle Inn for dinner and drinks. Well, actually it was more like, drinks and drinks and then finally, dinner.

We got trapped at the restaurant because of a huge rain storm, but Mama Lydia kept us laughing the whole evening. She had a "wee bit" to drink and just came out with endless, funny stories.
I'm pretty sure that Louise felt she had the best send-off possible - fun was had by all!!
