Last night we were invited to Justinian's home to meet his wife (aptly named Happiness) and his 2 boys Eriky and Edgar....talk about adorable! OMG they were the cutest kids ever...(this pic is of Edgar, Justinian & Happiness..need to add Eriky in another blog...I just couldnt resist this photo....)
We had a traditional Tanzanian dinner prepared by Happiness - chips, fried banana, chicken, salad of cucumbers and tomato with some pretty potent piri piri peppers. And of course washed down with a few Kili (beer). It was a very lovely evening watching the kids play with some of the IBM trinkets we brought with....amazing that the kids could turn a bookmark, tape measure and a pen into a simple, yet effective, airplane contraption in mere minutes...budding engineers!
We didnt stay too late and came back to the hotel where a few of us congregated to embark on the Euchre training sessions....I wouldnt be doing my Canadian duty if I didnt try to teach a few of the teammates how to play Euchre...definitely a must-know transferrable skill! So luckily a few of us knew how to play and now 2/3 of the group is trained up.,...by this time next week we'll be in full on Euchre tournaments...this should be good fun - the competition begins!
