Dar

Back in Dar Es Salaam for AVC (Annual volunteer conference), a 3 day conference for meetings and sharing placement experiences. The Beachcomber Hotel is host to this years VSO Tanzania conference, attendance of ~ 70 people. Located right on the Indian Ocean with spectacular views, nice pool and conference room. Just finished dinner buffet. Entertainment tonight - "African night" theme.....instructions are to wear traditional African attire (for me that means polo and kackis:). More meetings on the agenda for tomorrow and Wednesday. Thursday is a free day so i'm hoping to buy some doppler ultrasounds for the hospital and do a little more shopping in Dar. Leaving for Zanzibar on Friday to celebrate Sikuku (Christmas holiday). Expect to have plenty of pictures to share when I get back to Ndanda, maybe I can post while in Zanzibar, but not on this computer - connection is too slow.

Hope everyone is well back home.
