After a long old journey starting at 2am from the Captain’s Club with a pint of Aspell, we arrive at Kilimanjaro airport at 9.20pm Tanzanian time, it’s dark and warm and a tad chaotic but we are all safe and well.
Our first day starts at 8am with breakfast and a short (if not lethal and bumpy drive) to Peace Matunda. The orphanage has approximately 20-30 children, but 150 kids altogether are educated here, ranging from 3-14 years old. Some walk 2km to get here to start school at 8am! Puts my old 12 minute bike ride to school into perspective that’s for sure!
Anyway, must go, it’s playtime and its time to teach these kids rugby instead of football, although they all support arsenal instead of man u. Thank god for small mercies as they say ……………………..
