Wow. We are actually here. In Africa. In Tanzania. Staying in Mary’s house about 10km from Arusha along the Nairobi road.

Last night was spent frantically packing our stuff yet again, and deciding not to bring pillows and a duvet. This was pretty much enforced by the fact that our rucksacks each weighed just under 20kg, and an extra case would have pushed us over the top. Mind you, there was a man flying to Lagos at the airport who claimed he thought the limit was 64 kilos. They let him get away with it. Perhaps we could have brought all our stuff instead of going through the whole Heathrow ordeal. Never mind.
