Public Transportation

After 15 hours on minibuses that carry a maximum of 15 passengers, yet still find a way to hold 24, I think I´m about done with public transportation. Not that I dont enjoy being smashed between a bare all breastfeeding mother on my right and three hundred pound man who, despite his profuse sweating, refused to remove his wool sweater and winter hat - not to mention a live chicken at my feet. I, however, was the fortunate one, because a chicken that was strapped to the roof relieved itself on Kathy´s bag. Unfortunately, we have a long ways to go on this deranged system that we actually pay for.

Nonetheless, the people we have met have been extremely friendly and helpful and still haven´t failed to point us in the right direction when we´re lost.

In other news, we have contacted the director of the Mwasama Primary School in Tanzania and are currently organizing a date that we can work with the school. We´ll be sure to keep you posted on any more news!
