Maasailand

For those of you who are interested, I’ve been in Tanzania at the Cradle of Love baby home near Arusha for the past two weeks and change. It’s been interesting for sure, lots of holding and feeding babies, playing with toddlers, trying to get through the day with as little snot and spit on me as possible. There’s a few spitters who make this difficult, but they make up for it by being excessively adorable. I try not to play favorites, but Neema ends up riding my shoulders quite a bit. I haven’t taken a lot of pictures around the baby home itself, but on the various excursions we’ve taken outside, the camera has come out with a fair degree of regularity. There’s also some new kite aerial photography shots from the trip to the bush to visit the Maasai. If you have a Pro Flickr account, the high-resolution panorama shot from the kite is pretty neat. I suspect that through August at least, my Flickr photo stream will be much more interesting to subscribe to than my blog’s feed will be. Consider adjusting accordingly.
