in Mbeya, tanzania

*myth buster - tanzanian buses less crowded, 29 people "in" mini bus. three hanging outside until the rain started. yah baby (note all of drivers have been extremely safe.)
*at one of the last police check points before crossing out of malawi the road block consist of a red and white painted bamboo pole.
*in Mbeya someone tried to pick my pocket but too little practice caused him to fail. practice makes perfect.
*i sat across from a young well dressed gentleman with a backpack that had four animal hooves poking out of it. as it is against culture to stare at another mans hooves I did not ask what type.

off to dar es salaam tomorrow
