Elifasi

Life here's continuing along nicely.. Much to my friend Celia who's visiting from DC's dismay the rains are continuing longer than I was told by everyone they would. OF course people like to tell you what you want to hear, and i was assured that we're in the cold dry season now- finally today we've gotten a glipse of the sun. Last night celia and i were in a local bar and met a massai man 57 years old who was well versed in history, politics, and geography, telling us all his thoughts on religion, Nyeyere Tanzania's liberation president, Zimbabwe, Bush and Iraq- he was very interesting. and had refreshingly independent ideas. We regretted he wasn't just a bit more sober, but Celia was thrilled to find such a kindred spirit here.
