Origins & Destinations - Tanzania 269
Day 2 Small plane. As in, really, really small. The kind you barely get above the clouds in, and the kind that’s slightly bigger than what you train for pilot’s license in. Slightly nervous. Not sure what to expect. 500 security scanners later (that I had to take my film out for every time), and with a million butterflies in my stomach, the plane is in the air. No words. The beauty is astounding. Magnificent. 90 minutes and we land in Lobo. TAASA team is there, waiting. The hospitality of Tanzania keeps on wowing. There is a Jeep with a brunch set, because the drive to the lodge is long. The coffee is AMAZING. I don’t think anything can compare. The food in general: it‘s real. Bananas are small and have seeds. Watermelons have seeds and are to die for. Mother Nature is spoiling us in the best way possible. And then... the drive. THE DRIVE. Cried. Because what we saw is hard to describe. Feeling one with Nature. Feeling one with the world. Feeling HOME. Tanzania, you changed our lives. Day 3, I cannot wait for you.
