Day 7 – Travelling to our next destination

Today we woke early to meet our bus to take us fo our next destination Luhota Secondary School – to begin the Project Phase. The bus wasn’t as luxurious as our usual transport because of the camp being a fair bit off the road. We all had to fasten our belts as tight as possible and hold on tight. We finally recahed the main road and swapped buses, thank god as we were all covered from head to toe in dust! After a while on the bus we arrived at Iringa town where we haggled with people on the markets for our food for the next few days at project. We also met with Lulu, a local Tanzanian woman and bought ingredients for a cooking class she was leading for us. After a hectic hour of shopping we were all tired so enjoyed the last part of the bus journey to Luhota Secondary School. When we arrived we were all shown around. We were all a bit apprehensive about using the toilets a.k.a squad holes for the next 5 days. We set up camp inside an old classroom and then took part in the cooking class which was really interesting. Cailean, Robert and Cameron were keen to kill the chicken we had bought on the market for dinner! It was really tasty and it was nice being cooked for.
