On the week-end it was again a wedding. This time a typical
Chagga wedding.

| Nicely dressed for the wedding, Arusha, Tanzania |
This is the tribe, which lives in the area around Moshi and
Marangu. The colour of the day for younger people (generously, I belonged there,
too), was yellow, for the older pink....So I borrowed from Rose a yellow-blue
dress. For sure, I wanted to be adequate dressed as well. Just with choosing
the dress, we already had a lot of fun. I did not find any suitable footwear
with Rose (her feet are so much bigger than mine), but who looks closely at the
feet of a Muzungu?

| Having fun at the wedding, Arusha, Tanzania |
It was a
very nice wedding with a lot of dancing, many presents, exciting traditions
(e.g., the mother of the bride gets covered with many cloths, because she loses
now the daughter and must be warmed, instead, by cloths) and very good food.
A great
evening!
