God Save the Queen.
Although her actual birthday is April 21, for some reason, the international birthday celebration for Her Royal Highness, Queen Elizabeth was this weekend. As we Tanzanians are part of the Commonwealth, we had a celebration here in Arusha although judging from this photo, we weren't wearing odd enough hats.. First was appetizers and drinks that were called Pimms. Very British, old chap. Then a wonderful picnic dinner. There was live entertainment by local musicians who were all excellent. You haven't lived until you have heard the Beatles's I Want to Hold Your Hands sung with an African accent. It was also a fund raiser to expand internet access for schools. We bought two weekend getaways in the auction so I figure we put internet into several schools. We got weekends at what my sons would call kick-ass resorts. I would call them very nice resorts at a very nice price.. Google Four Seasons Safari Lodge. We don't stay in places this nice. I think I could get used to this.
