Tomorrow we leave between 8:30 and 9:00 for Nyanzwa (more than 100 km away) where the food will be distributed. I will take pictures. I will drive the BKB car and go with Dennis, Chavalla, Msigwa, Ebenezer, Queen and Greg. Others will join us but I don't know who yet.

Loading up for a food distribution of Feed My Starving Children food from MN
Today three trucks loaded food in boxes that came in containers from the US from Feed My Starving Children. This was the second container that was shipped to Dar and the last to arrive about three weeks ago. The boxes say packed on Dec 12, 2009. I am told the container arrived in Dar marked food and had to return to the US to be remarked Medical Supplies. Pole Sana (so sorry). It is a lesson that it is better to send the money to buy maze here in TZ in the areas that are having good crops then to send a container. Haiti needs FMSC food! (soap box sorry)
Tomorrow we leave between 8:30 and 9:00 for Nyanzwa (more than 100 km away) where the food will be distributed. I will take pictures. I will drive the BKB car and go with Dennis, Chavalla, Msigwa, Ebenezer, Queen and Greg. Others will join us but I don't know who yet.
This is Sarah the worker at BKB apt's new daughter, Gladness. She would not sit with me but we played baby games together and she can say a few words in Swahili and English. I had a great supper at Sarah's - rice, cabbage, peas and soda - fanta I must be sick (ask the CLC group).
This little boy is Danny. He lives at Sarah's and this is outside her store at her home. He is telling me to get in my car because he wants to see a white person get in the car. He did cry when I was leaving because he wanted me to stay and tickle him. The simple things here mean so much and make us peculiar.
