Oh Africa!: October 2010
http://erinmudd.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, October 10, 2010. One of the first things that struck me about Iringa were all of the children that seemed to be out on the town without any adult around. There are many that look no older than two, with backpacks twice their size, navigating the kamikaze downtown market scene. There are children playing, children making their way to school and children hanging out in just about every corner of Iringa. A road sign in Port St. John's, South Africa. There are quite possibly many very sad circumstan...

Oh Africa!: Karibu! Habari! Haribu???
http://erinmudd.blogspot.com/2010/10/karibu-habari-haribu.html
Thursday, September 30, 2010. One of the things that I love about Tanzania and Tanzanians is the long extended greetings that everyone gives to each other. You ask about one's health, family, household. you name it. It is really sweet and wonderful, and I really appreciate the care and joy that goes into each greeting. However, one advantage that I do have with language is that I am not afraid to make a complete ass out of myself. I have proven this numerous times before; one particularly memorable m...

Oh Africa!: Arriving in Iringa
http://erinmudd.blogspot.com/2010/10/arriving-in-iringa.html
Saturday, September 25, 2010. Web 11 Sep 2010. What will Iringa be like? We really had no idea. It is funny when you move to a place cold turkey. I had one picture on wikipedia, and a small blurb in the Lonely Planet which was my reference point for Iringa. Luckily, Iringa turned out to be even BETTER than expected! October 10, 2010 at 11:03 AM. It looks very cool! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Tempting Hammocks Swallow Tourists in the Transeki. Children Cheerfully Change Choices.

Oh Africa!: Chief Mkwawa... Hopefully Here to Stay.
http://erinmudd.blogspot.com/2010/10/chief-mkwawa-hopefully-here-to-stay.html
Sunday, October 3, 2010. Chief Mkwawa. Hopefully Here to Stay. One of our first journeys out of Iringa was to Chief Mkwawa's museum just a short jaunt down a bumpy road. I am still learning loads about Tanzania and African history. Sadly, I had no knowledge of Chief Mkwawa before we came to Tanzania, but was excited to see the museum because it was touted as one of the 'must see' things to do around Iringa.

Oh Africa!: Karibu Tanizania!
http://erinmudd.blogspot.com/2010/10/karibu-tanizania.html
Monday, September 20, 2010. Upon arrival in Tanzania we were picked up by a very soft spoken, gentle man holding a sign with our names neatly printed in marker. We were overjoyed to finally make it to Tanzania, but also excited that we weren't going to have to navigate Dar in the middle of the night with all of our luggage. We had been waiting for this moment for a long time. The helpful museum guide pointing out the murder of a thief in a mural at the Chief Mkwara museum.

Oh Africa!: August 2010
http://erinmudd.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 29, 2010. We arrived in Capetown after a long circuitous journey that involved enough time to passingly observe that Qatar is a really dusty place. Capetown, S. Africa is a place that I always dreamed of visiting, and it proved to not disappoint. The dramatic backdrop of table mountain and the eclectic mix of buildings was fascinating. Although after some considerable time in big cities, both Micah and I were itching to get a smaller, quiet beach town. It was a really amazing place to see.
