To: Bush Camp in Tanzania

Left Iringa very late today - 12:30. Had things to do in the morning. One was to buy a watch. When I traded my watch for Creato's bracelet a few days back, I wasn't really thinking about the consequences, e.g., the fact that it's nice to know what time it is. Got the trashiest, trashiest, very very very fake gold watch you've ever seen in your entire life! Bought it from one of those guys who sells trinkets from a board at bus stations. I'm going to take a picture of it and send it to you at our next stop - in Mzuzu, Malawi. When I put it on, another bystander looked admiringly and said, "Yes, that is nice." I just laughed ... and bought it.
