We are having a very different Christmas experience. Whilst
on the one hand I definitely miss the traditional Christmas experience, being in a hot
country has its advantages. The chidlers have roamed freely on the beach, in
the sea, in the pool and under the trees, playing very happily indeed. They have found some Muzungu friends of similar ages here, a lovely family from Arusha who have been living in Tanzania for 3 years working on global development projects. We have also enjoyed our family time together opening a few presents. And as parents, we might have
had our most peaceful Christmas yet.
I am delighted to say that Santa did find us. There was
definite concern that he might not visit Tanzania (as the children at school
have no concept of stockings), but perhaps he was drawn by Kates African Stocking
efforts and the shear might of ‘chidler power’ willing him to find us!
We wish you all a very Happy Christmas indeed, wherever you are and whatever you are doing. May it be peaceful and full of joy.
