Yes, two posts in one day. It's do it when you can. We haven't had internet access for three days, and won't again for four, as we move between lodges and tented camps. You'll hear no complaint from me; I love that we're so 'away'. This is the dry season, so it's a beige and dusty landscape. But bright color makes dramatic appearance on the roads and in fields, thanks to the Maasai people. These native tribesmen lead a simple, traditional life, living in dung huts with thatched roofs. We've seen them from the road, and today we visited a village. They drape themselves in fabrics of red and blue, not just for ceremony, but when going for water, riding bicycles and tending their herds. The color can't help but brighten-up what appears to be a pretty hard life.
