Hi, thanks for the messages everyone! I'm loving this place so much. We're up in the Usambara mountains now and I finally gave out all the stuff I brought over for the kids. They were so happy, it was so nice to see. These kids really appreciate it and they loved the stuff. Its so hard to get the things like that over here. they loved the colouring books and coloured pencils. This morning we walked up to the lookout point to see the Masai steppe. It was a great walk and along with yesterday we finally got the chance to do a bit of xcercise and stretch our legs.

Oh, last night we could hear a lot of music playing so a few of us decided to venture into local land and go clubbing with the locals. It was so much fun, you all know how i love to dance and wiggle. It was just full of guys, hardly any women, and if there were any girls, they had about 4 guys grinding up against them!! They loved us there, they never get travellers going to places like that!There was even a woman in there with a baby tied to her back. And 12 year old boys all trying to pull! Its no wonder that AIDS is such a problem here. They had rooms available to rent for the night next to the toilets. Anyway, don't worry, we took our guide with us and he kept an eye on us all night. We're staying in this place for 2 nights, and i've gotten a bit sick of putting the tent up so I upgraded to a hotel room with one of the other girls. Its amazing, we can have hot showers, and a bed!! I have space to sort my backpack out and i've even put some laundry in! I finally feel clean!

I think a few of us are going to stay an extra night in Zanzibar rather than going back to Dar the night before. I still can't decide between diving or snorkelling, as we were told the other day that people saw sea horses whilst diving. I really want to see them!

I know this is a bit all over the place, but there are people queuing to use the net so I gotto be quick and i'm trying to get everything down.

Oh, there are so many bananas growning here, we eat them all the time. I had a craving for bananas the day before I came over and now i'm overdosing on them.They are so nice!! I can't upload my photos from here as they would take days, as they still use dial up connection!
