Day One in Tanzania JAMBO

The following posts are what I kept in my journal.

Today we arrived at the Moivaro Coffee Plantation Lodge in Arusha, Tanzania. Africa is so different than what I expected. The majority of the roads that we drove on were paved and majority of people spoke English very well. I cannot wait to see what everything will look like in the morning. We are going on a canoe trip tomorrow which should be really fun. Tanzania is much colder than I expected it to be. You can see your breath when you're outside. There is even a fireplace in our room which we had lit for us to heat the room up! The tipping here is really interesting to me. You only tip a dollar or two if the service you feel the service is way beyond average. The flight today was really easy. We watched movies and read the whole time. The airport was not nearly as hectic as I had expected it to be. The journey begins tomorrow! I can't wait.
