some huts near Loliondo. The circular fences are made of acacia branches, the thorns should keep the predators at bay.
a well with a concrete slab and a tap. Notice all the tracks converging to the precious spot.
Pare mountains on the way to the Indian Ocean, high perched village.
the green line is obviously showing where the river keep things wet longer in the dry season.
bad weather below for the Earthlings, white sea of clouds, beautiful blue sky and Kilimanjaro for the flyers…
a Sonjo village in the Sonjo Valley. A small little known tribe, quite peculiar. The men sell their wives and kids to the market when things don’t go very well anymore between them! Funnier part is that the wife can ask the husband to sell her too when she is fed up! How do you sell a wife? What kind of marketing tricks and other lies can be used? “like new”, “hardly been used”, “as she is”, “have a try”, “free looking” as they love to say here for goodies? Puzzling…And then the kids, part of the package? It’s probably easier to sell a wife than a husband here anyway, heehee. Try “hardly spends time in pubs”, “hard working”, “doesn’t chase other women”…? No woman would believe that here….
Mount Meru with little Meru in the foreground.
then below, my all time favorite: Lake Natron with flamingoes to add a colorful touch.
