Just Pictures

Here are a few pictures I've been meaning to post, they are old news now, but still worth reporting on. Most of these are from when the Southwood Group was here a couple of weeks ago.

This is Elizabeth, our friend from Birmingham in the UK. She was teaching English at Uroki and was getting ready to head back home. One one of the afternoons that our group was teaching teachers I sat out side and had a lovely talk with her. Definitely a good memory.


This is Mama Kiongoze and Mzee Kiongoze, in other words the head elders.  He is her uncle and she is his niece.  I also know her as Apaufoo and she is a teacher of tailoring at Uraa Vocational School.  For those of you for whom I am bringing back clothing, she is the one making it.

 
On the last day the group was here we visited Rafiki Foundation, an orphanage and school in our area.  Here is Scott dancing with some of the children.


No all Tanzanian's are skilled in point and click photography.  Just because of the fun we had attempting to teach Emmanuel how to take a picture, I had to post one of his early attempts.


Here is a successful take #6 or #7.


On the way to the airport, John was having a fun time trying to keep the luggage from toppling over on him.  He described the look on his face in this picture as "I look like I'm happily terrified."

 
Saying good-bye to our favorite Chairman.

 
Delivering layettes made by last year's VBS kids to the Neema Orphanage.  Here is Sister Regina receiving them after graciously showing us around the homes.

 
What joy!  But it was hard to tear Kristi away from these beautiful children.
