(Pumba and Timon in Lion King)
It has
been a hectic week for the family Møller Larsen. Jacqueline is still
working hard and she is at the same time managing a lot of practicalities
regarding our move to our new house. Thea has started in her new school. Aunty
Jillian is helping us settling in. She has been here a while and already she
knows a lot of people and places.
I have been
hunting for cars. This has been taking up a lot of my time. Cars are like many
other things in Tanzania expensive and I do not want to end up with some
overpriced vehicle which will cost me grief later.
Also I have
been sailing my new HobieCat 16 and it is wild. In Ghana I was sailing a
similar boat on Volta river – here it is in the Indian Ocean. Sailing a
HobieCat 16 here can be compared to drive an overpowered tuned 2CV in a rally
race…
Tuesday I
participated in an actual boat race which took us passed big container ships in
the Dar es Salaam harbor and around two islands. I have not been sailing for
five years so it was hard work and I am still bruised with blue and yellow
marks on my arms. Luckily I was with an experienced sailor from the UK and we
ended up coming first after we had a terrible start. I nearly fell overboard
four or five times but managed to stay onboard with some help from my helm
Jason. Either I will lose my mojo or get hooked – I think the latter.
Today we were supposed to move to our new house,
however the things need doing has not been done (no water or independent power
supply in case of power cuts). Maybe tomorrow (hakuna matata)!? |
