Karen, Lydia and Ken's East African Adventure

July 4th - 21st, 2006

"If I know a song of Africa, of the giraffe and the African new moon lying on her back, of the plows in the fields and the sweaty faces of the coffee pickers, does Africa know a song of me? Will the air over the plain quiver with a color that I have had on, or the children invent a game in which my name is, or the full moon throw a shadow over the gravel of the drive that was like me, or will the eagles of the Ngong Hills look out for me?" - Isak Dinesen "Out of Africa"

The Smiles of Africa


Have you ever seen such beautiful smiles on children? These are some of the children that we met on our walk through the Chagga village of Marangu on the slopes of Mt. Kilimanjaro. This walk that we took was a highlight for many people in our group. Nobody could believe our guide, Carrie, chose to sit this one out and sleep. These smiling faces and the children shouting out "jambo!" contributed to the feeling that we had just stepped into paradise.
