Marangu - Arusha

We spent 2 days in the house of Dille, a friend of Kitty. He and his wife run a village education project, with school developments for the English language, computer skills and vocational training skills. We visited a primary school and a vocational centre. Very impressive. We also hiked all the way down to the village. Trough the villages and the banana trees and the waterfall. The market is very colourful. And the evenings were very cold.
Dille gave us also information about places to stay near the Crater. He had students everywhere and cell phones are so handy!!
3 May we arrived in Arusha. Also a big city, lots of traffic and the gateway to the Ngorongoro Crater and the Serengeti. And Shoprite is the place to be to meet other overlanders and to buy your goodies. We met 2 Dutch couples also driving back to Holland. One couple comes even from Rotterdam. It's a small world after all.
