After a $4:00 cup of coffee at the Amsterdam airport, we boarded the plane for our 8 hour flight to Kilimanjaro. We arrived safely and were met at the airport, after customs, by a man named "Biggie" (an appropriate nick name) and we were transported past Mt. Kilimanjaro to Arusha Tanzania for our first nights saty in Tanzania.
The next morning we visited ELCT (Evangelical Lutheran Church Tanzania) where we met the bishop and enjoyed sambosa and tea with him. We made a short stop at the mall, or market as it is called here, then we were off to a safari destination that occupied the balance of the day. Absolutely wonderful!! Elephants, zebra, lions, gazelles, wildebeasts, hippos, warthogs, and an array of birds filled that day and the next. Breathtaking!
As I write this at 10:30 p.m. on Wednesday, we are to catch a bus at 6:00 a.m. in the morning for an 11 hour ride to Dodoma.
What great pictures of the Safari!! Thanks for sharing.
