This is a little hut made by the Masaai guard who is currently watching the house we'll be renting (notice his spear between Noah and Ava). The kids are already claiming this as their new playhouse (there are two of them actually) as I think we'll hire our own guards. The house has a very nice garden and the kids are looking forward to adding some dogs to the mix and playing outside. There is another compound next to ours, and a number of Tanzanian homes nearby as well. The house sits off any big roads which will help with noise and dirt control. More pics of the house when we get in and it's finished.
This is at the school site, where our house will be built. It was terrifically windy that day and really hot. The dust was flying and coating EVERYTHING. On the way back to Moshi we could hardly see. You can imagine how we looked! Clive says that kind of wind and dust blowing is not usual. The plantings that will hide the fence will offer a little windbreak. Here's hoping! On the plus side, the view is great! Now that water has been found on the land, we can actually think about plantings and buildings!

O.k., what's a skati?
I can't wait to show these photos to my kids. They will be really jealous about the playhouses.
