Dr. Bon (as in Boniface) invited the volunteers for dinner at his home in Mwanza. He lives up on a hill that would be a hiker's dream. His brother drove us. We had the local fare (beef stew, fried fish, rice, cabbage, cucumber salad) plus the best drink I've tasted EVER. A fresh pineapple + avocado smoothie. We polished off two jugs of it in the first 10 minutes. His wife is gorgeous and the kids charming. I was definitely not that good as a teenager. Dr. Bon is an avid soccer fan and (apparently) like most of the men in Tanzania is waiting for FIFA World Cup 2010 (in South Africa) with the game calendar neatly folded behind his TV. His wife is not an avid a fan, shockingly.
On our drive to Dr. Bon's, we saw the ONLY jogger in Mwanza making his way up the road. Poor guy...everyone seems to know him and everyone kind of laughs. :/
