The building where luke first went to school - his strongest memory: standing on the concrete lining up for assembly!
This school is also where Laura White (Firth) and Maria Brand (-Starkey) taught :-) Hurrah! Nice to check it out! (Maria and Laura - Jane Window and Irene (mama bishop) said hi! and come back!)
The pods Luke used to collect - when they are dry (see photo - it's brown) - they were super handy for percussion instruments!
The Climax Club - a place of family fun for the young Prentices... many a soda and swim were enjoyed here!
Many women in Tanzania wear 'kangas' - printed on one side, large sheet type pieces of material, with little phrases/proverbs on the bottom that are usually something to do with God (e.g. 'Has not strayed from God's path', 'God alone knows the salvation of man' etc.) So we bought one for Janey - and this little shop was in an area of Saba Saba (seven seven - a clothes market) away from normal foreigner interaction, so we were hardly hassled as we walked through and the prices were not inflated for white faces!
They seem to be worn over other clothes - skirts i think... and readjusted as they come loose over the day... and are handy for use like an apron in the kitchen or while cleaning... but don't go easily over a pregnant bump!
