Kiswahili

The computers here are hit or miss (as expected), and today I'm on a computer that can't post any pictures :( The wait at the internet cafes can be very long (up to an hour and a half) and if you are lucky you will get a computer that can upload pictures. Unfortunately today I wasn't so lucky. Next time I'll try to post my new pictures!
After class we met with a couple of tour guides to arrange a hike on Sunday. Two tour guides met us and discussed hiking up the mountains here in Morogoro. The men in our group decided to hike up the highest mountain (2150 meters) and the women chose to hike up the smaller one (about 1000 meters).
We rested for a little bit this afternoon and then walked down the road to try and catch a Dala Dala into town. One of the taxis drove by and offered to drive us for 2,000 shillings (a fair price), so we accepted and all hopped in. Its only a 5 minute drive into town but to walk usually takes about 30 -40 minutes.
There are a few internet cafe's in town but we all use Valentine's internet cafe because it seems to have the fastest connection. Rates are very cheap - usually 30 minutes of internet costs about 500 shillings (a little less than 50 cents).
Wednesday and Saturday nights we eat dinner out in town, so tonight we are eating the hotel Accropo. Accropo is known to be a wazungu (white people) hangout and the food is supposed to be pretty good.
That's it for now; still staying healthy and enjoying Morogoro.
Another week and a half here until I return to Dar Es Salaam.....
