Arusha, Tanzania, East Africa
29 August 2001
Hi,
Just arrived in Arusha in Northern Tanzania. I had no
problems whatsoever. Isn't that nice? I have yet to hear from Damien, but
he ought to e-mail me by tonight.
Surface transportation refers to bus or taxi or train
travel. All it means is that I'm taking a vehicle to Tanzania from Kenya.
The people here are amazingly kind. I'm amazed. It's quite a relief. In
Ethiopia there were tons of bums and beggars- some had leprosy, some were
war vets, some lost most of their family to famine - pestering Damien & I.
On the way to Arusha I saw some cool wildlife just at the
side of the road: zebras, wildebeests, and lots of Thomson's gazelles.
Pretty neat.
Well, gotta go. I'll let you know what my next plans are
once I hear from Damien.
Love,
Mike
