In the morning this woman came to her big 4x4 Toyota truck, loaded with sensible camping equipment, and looked at our Chico and tents with such silent disdain. Obviously thinking we were mad. Maybe so…
I’m just glad to be out of Mbeya.
It is now pissing down rain, and we are going to have an early finish – only going 390k to Iringa.
We spoke to a boy in Sumbawunga who is waiting for his Primary School results so he can go onto Secondary. He said everyone has to pay for school – no wonder there are so few people in school. He’s in his late teens, he had to work, school, work, school. So it’s taken him ages to complete just the first part of school. But he’s determined to finish high school, at least. Good on him.
