Coffee Estates and the Rift Valley

We are heading to Mbeya tomorrow to drop the students off for their 8 day homestay in the village. The students will be staying in pairs, each with a Tanzanian family from the mountains below Mbeya. Jon & Barb Arensen are in the states for a week, as Jon's mother recently passed away. Today we are packing and trying to get everything ready for our safari early tomorrow morning.

Katrina and I are really looking forward to having a couple of days relaxing at Utengule, once the students are safely with thier hosts. Katrina has been enjoying her one month school holiday by enrolling in Swahili language school at Riverside. Although it's been wonderful, intensive language classes for 4 hours a day are a bit draining!

Things are going well here without the Arensens, though we are anticipating their return!
