People carry many things on their heads here and I saw a little girl holding a soda can on her head, walking behind her mother who had a large metal jug on her head like she was practicing. It was so cute, but I was in a car and didn't get a picture.
Kent took my roommates and I to Moshi today, which is a little over an hour away from Arusha, toward Kilimanjaro. We went to a flea market to see if we could find gear that climbers had left behind after their trek up Kili. Moshi is lower in altitude than Arusha so it was very hot.

I begin climbing March 4th and I'll be at the top on March 8th
My time at the hospital ends on Monday and I'm sad to leave my new friends behind. There are 3 interns at the hospital, who are all awesome, and the other doctors and medical students have been so fun to work with.Cleopatra, me, Dr. Gloria Temu, Dr. Lynn Moshi, and Dr. Neema Lema

The power kept going off so we had a romantic candle light dinner.

Unfortunately, I've caught this nasty cold so I've been feeling lousy and haven't been much fun the last couple days. I went to a reggae concert with Erik, Bernice, Erik mdogo, and my parents and left before all of them so I could get to bed at a reasonale hour. So the old folks partied later than I did because of this lame cold.
Eric bought a basketball and left it with the landlords kids who take care of our yard. The first started kicking it like a soccer ball, but I tought them to dribble and they enjoy it.Kent took my roommates and I to Moshi today, which is a little over an hour away from Arusha, toward Kilimanjaro.

Enjoy your last few days at the hospital! I look forward to seeing all sorts of mountain pictures from your climb. I like mountains.
Go Thea! Climb that mountain!
