Mwanzo

Day 2 (or 3 if you count the entire day of travel) begins.

We all arrived safe and sound in Kilimanjaro late Monday, quickly passed through immigration, picked up all our luggage, and then our only road block was getting through customs, which also resolved after about 20 minutes of inspection & interrogation. Otherwise our travel, though lengthy and exhausting, was pretty hassle-free.

We went straight to our accommodations at Center House in Arusha, and went straight to bed. The evenings are quite cool which is very nice. In the morning we got our bearings around town, and bought a couple necessities for our stay. We went out to "Bamboo" Restaurant to enjoy our first "family meal" together.

Today, we'll meet with Dr. Mhando and arrange other meetings with our other stakeholders. We're all really excited and quite pleased with our first few days here. We'll post more with pictures soon! :)
