Today we split book cataloguing and painting the room between us as a
group. I helped to paint the blue walls which was messy fun. More so because our rollers are attached to branches so we can reach the top sections! We also stand on tables to do the edges neatly near the roof... not sure if that complies with the health and safety but it is quick and effective! The blue is such a
lovely sky blue and it really brightens the room up.
We went for dinner in Mtama town, but unfortunately the chicken I ordered
didn’t actually have any chicken on, just bones. Sad times. But I had some good
ugali, beans and vegetables so that kind of made up for it. I had a quick
shopping browse for sellotape, as we ran out, and as I didn’t know the word I ripped
a piece of tape off a box and waved it around, with no luck surprisingly! After dinner we
went to the street sellers for mendazi. These little bundles of love were being
sold by local women who sat in a line with a bucket each with various snacks
in, lit by an oil lamp in each bucket. It was really quite pretty, a line of candles. I wish I
could have taken a photo, but I don’t think that is allowed.
Chicken bones Hhmmmmph
