Our day in Arusha, March 12

We had a nice buffet breakfast.

Cliff and Lydia stayed in their room and rested after 10 days of driving and walking. They needed the rest. Robin and Joel ventured out to the center of town. We were immediately accosted by people who wanted to help us find our way, usually to their shop. We finally made it to the German boma. This was a fortified compound that the Germans built when Tanzania was one of their colonies. They now have a museum there. It was very small but quite interesting.

After that we walked to the UN building where they are holding a tribunal for Rwanda genocide. We talked to the security guard about his trip to Boston. Unfortunately we did not get to go in.

We got back to the hotel and went for a swim. After that it was lunch time. We had a pizza and some salad. A light lunch because the dinner would be big.

I looked through the rest of my pictures so I could upload more (which I have done).

We had a visit from one of the safari staff, LeMaria. He brought us some arrows we were given by the Hadza people.

We had a nice dinner and then off to bed, or the computer.

Tomorrow we are off the Kenya to see our friend Fred Muhia and family.
