A trip to Lake Victoria

July 30, 2007

I have just been to Mwanza.We had to drive about 5 long boring hours to get there. Driving to Mwanza we stopped in the middle of the poring rain to have picnic, yes I know not the brightest thing to do.

Mwanza is very different from Tabora, because it’s got a lot more people! But that’s not too surprising as I think most places have more people than Tabora. We stayed in a lovely hotel right next to Lake Victoria. After settling into the hotel we went for a drive to see if we could drive along side Lake Victoria. After driving for about an hour and a bit we saw the tiniest glimpse of the lake.

The next day at breakfast dad was out to find a fisherman making mum impatient by not being back in time. At this particular time mum decided to go and pull out some plants that she rather liked for her garden in Tabora and crouching down in the flower beds, really humiliating herself. Luckily for her (and us) no one noticed her. After mum had stuffed the plants into her hadnbag Amelia decided to take some of the breakfast muffins and smuggle them into her jumper in the end she took 8! That’s when dad decided to come back. After breakfast we hopped into the car and drove home.
