The
first year in East Africa is wow year


Everything is new.
We write it all to family and friends.


The names have a special ring:

           
Kibanchabancha
            Bura-tana
            Kilimanjaro
            Nyambula
            Chacha
            Pili.

 

The
birds and animals sound exotic:

           
Widowbirds
            Bataleur
Eagles
            Simba
            Chasabugu
            Nyumbu.

 

The
scenes take your breath away”

           
Lake Victoria
            Mathari
Valley
            The Serengeti
            Dancing and
Drumming
            Bunches of
smiling faces.

 

Even the
fears are new and special:

           
Vipers and mambas
            Failure and
fun
            Roaches and
lizards
            Border
crossings

   
        and a first funeral.
