We have arrived in Dodoma!!

It was a very long flight from Vancouver to Dar Es Salaam.The first few days were spent touring around in Dar Es Salaam. Seeing some sights and trying to get our bodies on the correct time. We visited Bwagamoyo, a historic site of the slave trade. We also went to the cathedral in Dar. We even got to try some bartering at the markets, that was an experience!
Today we travelled from Dar to Morogoro and visited the St Gaspers Seminarian College. From there we were back in the "blue Limo" (big blue truck) to finish the trip to Dodoma. It was a long day of bumping up and down. Our arms are tired from waving at everyone in the villages as we passed by, there were a lot of villages.
We are all doing great. More to come.
