Lake Duluti revisted

Back when we had only been in Arusha a few weeks we visited Lake Duluti. Since then we've been back once as a family and Mr B did a waterbird survey there a few weeks ago counting ducks. Today we decided to head back and try to make it all round the lake as a family. We had a lovely walk with minimal moaning and a fair number of snack stops (unrelated surely?!) and then lunched at the Serena Mountain Village Lodge. We got to the lake earlyish and so saw a nice variety of wildlife, including nile monitor lizards again, loads of butterflies and another, slightly smaller, giant millipede. We had a nice time relaxing on the front lawn of the lodge with our coffee and chatting to various guests including a biophysics professor from Harvard and his wife, before returning home for a mammoth waffle fest with friends. Altogether a very nice day.

 

  

  

  

  

  

  

And for Mr B's relations, does this make you think of another little boy about 31 years ago? 

  

  

 

Here's one from yesterday after a short walk back from our friend's house along the dusty track. We decided bath first, dinner later....

 

nice to be clean, fed, in jimjams and in possession of scarves
