Arusha Day Hike

  We didn’t want to just hang around in Arusha, so we got a private guide on the cheap ($60)) We would take a local bus to the foot of a dirt road, then we would walk a few minutes to a village.

Marcia sat on one while the guide and I set on another ( along with the driver) After another 5 mins of riding, we arrived at village. The ladies were very friendly and were bottling banana beer along with a couple of guys. I remember it as tasting VERY bad so we passed on it.Tanzania 2013 5 047 (Small) Tanzania 2013 5 053 (Small) After walking a few hundred yards more we said “EnoWe said enough walking!) and we took the motorcycles back to the main road. The minivan bus had it’s usual twenty people in it so everyone is close and personal.

   We got back in twenty minutes and I fought with the local Wi-Fi until I got disgusted and went to find another spot. I found one at a Gelati shop and had to buy somethingTanzania 2013 5 048 (Small) Tanzania 2013 5 045 (Small)
