1st day in Dar - Mon 31st March 2014

Spent the day preparing lectures and dealing with work related emails. 

We were collected at 4pm to arrive well before our lecture start time of 5pm, except we were delayed!!! A 15 minute journey took just over an hour.   I have never seen such delays!! Cause of traffic jams unknown. Loads of street hawkers and beggars trying to sell all sorts of cheap tack and food/drink.  They have a sitting target with nowhere to go.


IAA Dar es Salaam Campus

The IAA building in Dar is unusual in that it is in two parts. Its also based in a shopping mall with a cinema nearby!!  The Quality Plaza as it's known.  Julie is teaching in one section, me in the other.  I had more students than in Arusha, almost thirty I estimated.


My Dar student cohort, all busy working on my workshop activities

We had a good session and I over ran, so they must have liked it.  Same again tomorrow.
