Corner of Double Road and Chagga Street in Moshi. I called this Dala-Dala corner because the Dala-Dalas (local buses - see the van bottom center) stopped here. This was also where most of the flycatchers would gather to watch for tourists.
Tanzania Coffee Lounge - our main hang out and Internet Cafe. It was too hot for my normal Americano so mostly I would drink Coke Light with the occasional Fanta Orange. Notice the Maasi guard in the bottom left of the photo. He was one of two who were always at the front door.
Two Maasai Warriors - Pappae and Little Ruben on guard at Ngorongoro Crater camp at night. Pappae was the Maasi who guarded our camp at night to chase away the occasional hyena.
Nambe Falls located about 4800 feet up Mount Kilimanjaro. After that hike, Gwen, Jenifer and I decided it would be fair to tell people we climbed Mount Kilimanjaro. We could conveniently leave out the part about how high we climbed. Kili is 19,340 feet tall so we only made it about 25% up.
My First Million!!! This is One Million Shillings, only about $900 US, but it looks impressive.
This is Gwen standing on the stairs inside the salve caves. These caves were carved from the coral reef bedrock of Zanzibar Island and used to "store" slaves waiting for a ship shortly after the slave trade was outlawed.

View of Kilimanjaro from my hotel window
This rainbow appeared as we were leaving Ngorongoro for the last time. We all took it as a sign from God saying everything would be OK. This was the perfect way to end a very stressful and emotional trip.

Hello. This post is likeable, and your blog is very interesting, congratulations :-). I will add in my blogroll =). If possible gives a last there on my blog, it is about the Aluguel de Computadores, I hope you enjoy. The address is http://aluguel-de-computadores.blogspot.com. A hug.
I really commend you for the work you are starting with children. Our family is fostering children and we love to tell them about the bible. And now they want to have bible stories before they go to bed. I hope and pray that the children that you are working with will have the same desire and grow up to be successful.
Thanks for this amazing blog.
