Arriving in Dar Es Salaam

Getting closer to Dar Es Salaam

Another village along the way

Ephriam and Daniel - always kidding around. It's too bad we couldn't make it to their concert

This boy was so sweet and photogenic

Children doing their daily duties - children work hard here

Shy Tanzanian child

Visiting our compartment

Kids of Finkuli. They stayed with us the whole 23 hours

Lots of good company while we were stuck

This boy was very sweet and charismatic

Boys of Finkuli

Just one of the boys

The people came up with the most original poses. This girl was really funny.

Playing with the local kids

Gillinda writing her name - it is an accomplishment here

African sky

African children

Somewhere along the tracks

Along the tracks

Having company over to our compartment - haven't had company in a while....

Making the most of our time in Finkuli

Jordan watching the world go by - a very different world

So different here - Jordan thinks of the chicken to pet and the boy thinks of it to slaughter

Kids to play with while we were stuck

Two completely different worlds

Buying food on the train

Ephriam and Daniel - two singers on their way to a concert in Dar Es Salaam, they were the nicest guys

It is always a relief to be sitting down having reached your mode of transportation. This is our first class cabin.

Hurrying to catch the train, arms too full

Second and third class waiting area - strange to see segregation like that
