Gay Cruising Schottland

a sign of life

you believe it will not, but we are currently already so stressed out that we find almost no time, you up to date to hold.
the most important: we are doing well! ;-)) But
week to the last:
the last day we spend in Arusha organize elli u nora us together once a day trip in a mountainous village called Monduli juu. the only really exciting (at least for us - can be, that we know what 'cultural tourism programs' concerns are a bit spoiled ...) was the dalla-dalla ride there. it's something to it, the statement "a dalla-dalla is never full" - have incredible how many people in such a companion space: 14 seats, we have counted 26 people, not involved luggage! ui, since we had already afraid for our bags, we were there the night before, unfortunately, somewhat stigmatized. beginning at dusk, we made four of us on the man away in our "hangout" when suddenly (on the main road on which there was at that time keen driving) a tried iris's bag to tear shoulders of hers, also from the beating u screaming three brave heroes let it hold not, not until the beginning of honking cars u threw passant stones at him, he took u his accomplice ran away - we have in the aligned hit!
After this incident, we like to drive to Moshi, which lies at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro, on. a nice kleinstaedtchen in which the tourists descend ansch. but only in expensive hotels, we are once again placed among Africans alone! The trip to Marangu (starting point for climbing Kili), where we hope a good view of the kili is again similar to the previous. many banana plantations, small waterfalls u mud buildings. our questions about the peculiarities of the Chagga people (which is located there), we can not lead our answer, unfortunately, what is viell. because we were the first to talk shit (actually hats lasted long eh ...;-)) were u there was not a real leader? ;-)) With the kili-view wars, unfortunately, nothing, thank God we had na can take pictures of him in the morning from the hotel ... hehe!
mountain rain forests, take the bus 5 hours to Lushoto in the usambarabergen, a 130 million year old mountain range with various plant species u 2700, a district just there (!) Found! attracts us the fresh mountain air, above all, the German colonial lord also like to stay there ... let frosty nights will be there, but at the same strawberries, peaches, mangos, asparagus, etc. - well, because we are curious! ;-)) Got there, we are glad when we can finally sit in our hostel, the backpacks. in search of the shower we are unfortunately only a stale bucket of water. later we also notice here that is pouring from the tap anything, but instead comes to us with every wash the toilet, some liquid counter (no, no, the top was not him, but down the pipes were leaking!). as we look forward, as we are allowed to leave the next day to our 3-day trekking tour. walk through paradise forests exhibited u, inhale the fresh mountain air u can us for sheer variety of plants flower-u do not decide where we should look first - it's a dream! even earlier than expected, we have reached our first goal of (the ima us, our guide, ansch. not often that we have such a cheesy thighs in the ham! ;-)): a clay house with thatched roof and incredible views : see before us the incredible wide maasaisteppe - so beautiful, so that we are all sure u watch only 2 hours (or 1500 meters directly below us!)! after our first ugali (the typical carb here, but rather the rural population u not for tourists), tastes as good as what polenta, we explore themselves (but with 10 children in the wake!) a bit, the fields in the villages u environment, u wait before playing cards diary writing in this gorgeous sunset on the environment - the grueling bus ride here has already paid! after a cold night, we continue to walk: steep paths through sugar cane plantations, to avocade-papaya mangobaeumen and along and through some villages, to our next 'camp site' at our second Vantage point: yes, hui, even more beautiful than yesterday, but is is our beds (can be the 'better' at all call?) also rustic than yesterday. on wooden boards, the walls of plastic sheets, but with a very dizzying view - well, as we look forward to yet again the 'Escape to'! previously, however, goes on to Irente's Farm, on the brown bread they (!!!!!), jam, hard-u cream-cheese, produce their own u at lunch awaits us mmmh our ...- this Usambara mountains we are always sympathetic! ;-)) Then we visit an orphanage near the city of which we of a few such small sugar-sweet donuts almost not be released! again enjoy the kitschy sunset with our daily safari beer on the terrace, while the men cook our dinner ... well, to which one could get used to but smooth! ;-)) Will dine in the dark (hm, who had their good reasons over which we should do better not worry!), Only an open fire ensures that we are not freezing cold though, but nose run but u suck ... looks like as if the men but would rather get drunk alone, no problem, looking forward to this eventful day anyway back on the bed. pull the whole brought clothing, not to be so cold as the night before - (! our toes with all ;-)) do not sleep well but wake up again to the whole Early morning we are going to get rid direction Lushoto 'downtown' ;-) ), since we are after our bus to catch it Saalam - which is also starting time, but unfortunately we are fooled again. pay 3 seats (nina, iris u "bags") book, 3 seats u want! eingezwengt children between black mamas, babies crying, vomiting in disgust u annoying other passengers, which we and our aufruhr only laughed at! meet extremely finished last of which we are glad when we finally after 2 hours, both have managed to get a space. the eyes we can hold almost no longer open, but then at least take these 7 hot u busy for hours travel time a little faster, before we finally got in to the city of Dar u arrive in our hostel. we never have been so looking forward to a shower!
