First Tanzania pictures!

We (Sue, Ellie, and Luke) are not leaving for Tanzania for two more days. However, we just received some pictures from Tom, so thought we would share them with you. He went on an all-day fishing trip which he said was great: he doesn't speak Swahili and the fishermen didn't speak English, (plus Tom doesn't really swim!), so it was quite the adventure! Here are the pics:

The UN Rwanda Criminal trials from the 1994 genocide are happening now in Arusha.
Tom was able to attend the trials yesterday.

I can't wait to get there and eat some "fat spread!"

Back in Chicago, we are madly making last-minute preparations for our departure. Next post from Tanzania!
