Jægersborggade at Nørrebro: trendy shopping street

A few blocks from my street you find Jægersborggade - a little street with many small shops and cool cafés. Two years ago Jægersborggade was nothing but the street to buy weed. Then the residents decided to give the street a makeover going green and innovative. Since then 30 mini-shops have arisen.
Now you can go shopping in Jægersborggade - for cool stuff and for hash.

4 Pics: Nansensgade Streetparty 2008

The residents of Nansensgade held a streetparty yesterday. What a cool street!! Me and Jones went bananas with the Nightshot Portrait of my Casio EX-S10. We also pimped the bikes of some lucky girls.

A week at Bongo Camping

We've been more than a week now in the surroundings of Bongo Camping. At least so I guess, because I have completely lost my sense of time.

Things I have done so far:
- climbed Mount Rungwe in one day (sooo proud!)
- been to the Kaporogwe Falls
- chilled a lot at Bongo Camping
- taken Swahili lessons at Bongo Camping
- met many very nice people

Here are some pictures:

Enter Dar es Salaam

I just found a free hot-spot connection here in Dar es Salaam at our hotel: Harbour View.
It has been a very good stay so far. People are great and we (me and my fellow Mzungus) are improving our greeting skills in Swahili. I also started building small sentences - mostly with the verb "to have" which is created from the word "na" (with). For instance "I have" is "nina", where "ni" is marking "I". "I have not" is "sina". With nina, una and sina I can say everything!

nina - I have
una - you have
ana - he/she has
tuna - we have
mna - you have
wana - they have

In a few hours we are going to the station to take the train about 1000 km south-west through the Savanna to Mbeya. There we will go to Bongo Camping. Hope to see some lions and elephants on the way, but not on the camp site:)

I will now try to upload some pictures from Dar es Salaam. --> It worked fine. I got a lot of street photos too, but for now I'll just post these fantastic views. Baadaye ("later")!
