Ah, laying in bed is a wonderful experience. I just took a 2.5hour journey from Arusha to Marangu. Rode in a small vehicle some what like an oversized van called 'Dala Dala' in swahili. They stop whenever someone is on the side of the road so it is the public transport of this area. Cheap, convient and relatively fast. To have some understanding of the speed, it took 2.5 hours to move 60 people, 150km for under $4CDN. Try that in Canada.
Now to the title, it was one of the stickers on the side of the daladala and I'm glad it was there. We saw the aftermath of a collision on the highway between a cargo truck and a safari jeep. We couldn't tell if anyone was hurt but it made me relize how easily it can all end on a simple drive.
I don't know why I have come to Marangu really. I don't understand at this ont what I will do but I will stay for two days and spend sometime among this area. Don't know what is in for me therefore I have no expectations. Besides I'm sure by tonight I'll have a much better idea of my path.
Smething is going on with my throat it hurts to swallow. Not sure what it might be. Trying to drink lots of juice and keep eating if it doesn not finish soon I'll have to do something more. SO on that note maybe I'll g and take a nap or tr to hold off sleeping and go for a walk. I like it here. There is rain! :)
