Here I am, catching up on the 20th.
This morning, we woke up early to go to KCMC to meet with Abdullah. We stopped by the KCMC canteen to have a western breakfast with eggs, sausage, eggs, toast, slice of beef, and tea. We really enjoyed our full breakfast and it was only 1900 Tsh!
I presented the marketing guide, the revised KCMC bplan, and a new KCMC presentation to Abdullah. I also showed him a sample business plan for him to learn from. Abdullah realized that he has got quite a bit of work ahead of him! We are still missing some photos for the wheelchairs, so Christina helped me take some product photos at TATCOT.
Abdullah cut the day short, and we returned to town earlier than usual today. Christina and I decided to go around town a bit to help her find an ATM for cash. We did a bit of running around, and turns out she was only able to get out 300,000 Tsh. She has just enough for the safari tomorrow.
Anna made us lunch! We werent’ too hungry but we ate anyways, it was this fried rice + veggies dish. Very very delicious! We ate and got ready to head back to town to burn some time.
We walked to Moshi town market to check out the scene, and went to the tour company to double check that we have sleeping bags for tomorrow safari camping trip. Turns out we will be joined by two others from Arusha! I hope they are friendly.
The market was a bit boring, since we weren’t really there to buy any fresh vegetables or fruits. So we just passed along, and went to buy some snacks for tomorrow from the supermarket. I bought some cookies and salty snacks, and stopped by a convenient store to buy some candy and gum. I will be so happy tomorrow when I have candy on the trip!
We went to the Coffee House and found out that it was where all the tourists hang out. We bought a large pot of tea (600 Tsh), and sat there for a couple of hours just to chat and burn time until we felt like going home. The Coffee House has a very cute kitten there!
Nothing really happened today, so we came home and just worked on the computer to catch up on blogging and do some more writing.
Anna spent the whole afternoon making kaboabs, and we had some with chutney. It was so yummy! I love the food here.
Christina and I were hanging out for a while and packed up for the safari! We found out that we would get transported to Arusha through a shuttle, and would be picked up by the private car later in Arusha. Ahhh… 6am to meet for the shuttle.. it’s so early.
