Valentines Day and for the third year running I found a lovely Int**net card from my favourite mate in Bristol - thank you! Made my day! It was Louisa's Birthday and we all met at Louisa's shack, high up Mount M**u Mountain. The plan for all 20 of us hadn't been thought through and aft** a few hours we w**e all hungry and people started to fall out. I went outside to stay out of it all - big mistake! When I decided to come back inside all the beds - and any remaining pillows, cushions, roll m...

All of our travellers - AND all of their luggage - arrived in Arusha together and on schedule. Upon arrival at the Arusha Hotel around 10 pm last nite, we were greeted with welcoming smiles, cool towelettes and a refreshing glass of juice. This morning after a good sleep and breakfast we met our safari guides and had last minute schedule updates. Then of was time for a quick and delicious lunch before setting off on our first safari...

Cape Buffalo, baboons, hippos, giraffe - within 6 feet of our jeep! - zebra, dikdik, colobus monkeys, warthogs, water buck, bush buck, and a blue monkey... All within 1 park and 3 hours. 2 flat tires barely slowed us down and 42 alumni returned to the hotel suitably excited and awed with their 1st day. Access will be sketchy as we head into the Serengeti tomorrow but will do my best to update our experiences.

Morning dawned bright and sunny. Early breakfast and then tour of city. Stopped at Cultural Centre where arts and crafts could be admired and souvenirs purchased. Lots of intricate ebony and rosewood carvings - impossibly intertwined figures of the nation's best known wildlife species. And the tanzanite! Oh my! After lunch we head to our lodge on Lake Manyara in the Serengeti. Until my next post Kwaheri! (good bye)

December 8th?? I know I shouldn't post this, but I'm going to. Moo-ha-ha!! (that's my evil laugh) I'm having a "moment." Sometimes I really, really hate Europeans. In these moments, rare as they are, perhaps once every five or so years lasting about one hour, I feel enraged. Really. I think it's because in general I accept my status as an American and therefore the "whipping boy" of the world. I accept that our country is powerful and makes some very ****** decisions - decisions that cause th...

Over deze dag niet veel te melden; we zijn op het vliegveld opgehaald door onze driver voor de komende twee weken: Hussein. Wel even wennen maar blijkt een aardige vent en spreekt goed engels.
Mooi hotel alleen slecht geslapen (zeg maar niet).

... just much more liberal and informative because Charlotte and I refuse to censor any of the answers I give them (and I freaking hate teaching abstinence). Each of the schools has 80 kids, split into two classes. At the end of the two weeks, the kids even get a mini graduation ceremony where friends and family can come. They prepare art, songs, dances, and dramas to perform at their ceremony.
I love it, I love it, I love it. I was paired to work with Charlotte (who is ...
... modernization of the city. Every so often, we would see a person/dog just trekking on the side of the road and we would pass small villages (and I mean small) which were evident by the road side shops (or Dukas). We also passed Nkoranga, where we would spend some time later in our trip at their hospital, leprosy home, HIV clinic and CCF. As we came into Arusha town, we passed the United Nation’s Tribunal Building where they are STILL having trials ...

... pasta which was so good and so worth the extra money - definitely not as good as penne ala vodka I've been craving, but still better than the usual rice and beans.
We had plans to go out on Thursday night so we had checked in to stay at Centre House again. They definitely love our business there. After dinner we stopped at the store to pick up some beer and wine to drink before heading out to Mwingu night club. We saw a bottle of wine called "Jewine" - awesome ...
Hi all I know it has been a long time since any of you have heard from me but I am doing great! Started teaching HIV/AIDS and life skills at Edmund Ricew Secondary School. I loved it the kids were great so smart and fun. I also went on a Safari in Arusha Nat. Park and it was so cool we saw lots of giraffes some zebra and baboons ...

... I would have been panicking. Things seem to be going well until another car almost hits us (as normally happens on an Arusha road) and then begins Mama Anna's screaming. Again. "OH MY GOD OH MY GOD WHERE HE COME FROM EMMY DEAR YOU SEE? THAT CAR? OH MY GOD OH LORD GET US HOME OH LORD WHAT IS HAPPENING" in her crazy Swahili accent. After we get off the main road, we turn onto the dirt road to get home. Like I said in my last entry, cars drive on these roads but I don't ...
