Safely Arrived In Tanzania



Well here we are in Tanzania, after travelling 41 hours from New Zealand with the twins, what along haul.
We had to sit with the babies on our knees all the way, and try and sleep like that to, so as you can imagine we are exhausted.
Madie one of my twins vomitted all over me on the last 2 hours of the plane trip, lucky I had back up clothes, the passenger beside me didn't seem to mind to much, luckily.
Madie and Ruby the twins are settling in fine, still alittle jet lagged, but babies adapt well.
It is very hot here, so I can see I shouldn't have brought as many clothes for them as I did, as they are running around in nappies.

I have already experienced my first snake in my room, I got abit of a fright as we don't have any snakes in New Zealand.
It just turned out to be a brown house snake though, harmless. Enough to give you a fright when it is stearing at you.

The Maasai people are fascinated with the babies as twins are not common in their culture.
I think the girls are fascinated with them to.
With all the bright coloured clothes and jewellery they wear. What amazing people, so polite.
I sure am going to enjoy my time here at Meserani Snake Park.

My father-in-law has built us a lounge for the kids to play in. I even have the internet here in the middle of no where, how about that, actually the internet is working better here for me than it was for me back home, and I had broadband.

Well that is about it for now as we haven't ventured far, still recovering from our travels.
I will keep you all informed.
Bye For Now
P.S. Above is my house I will live in for the next year.
