From Lushoto we had bought some bus tickets for a 9am bus to Tanga, which is in the north east of Tanzania on the coast. Relatively speaking, this would be a nice fast bus. Relative [...]

Right as we got off the bus in Lushoto, we were hounded by 3 guys trying to sell us various services. Luckily we’d seen the Tumaini Hotel from the bus, and we just walked the short distance there. We checked in, and [...]

So, I’m blogging. What’s going on at home? Andy had a baby, Crossfit Ventura is having a grand opening soon, and I got some news from my parents. Please leave me a comment or an e-mail and let me know what’s happening. How’s cheap/slacklining lunch? What is everybody up to?

Thursday evening (July 31) we took the U-bahn to the S-bahn to Munich’s international airport. The airport is great. It’s only 5 years old, so doesn’t have any of the shops-are-on-the-other-side-of-security problems that some [...]
