Sunday Market

Each Sunday we have the Fruit and Veg market which is located quite close to the Compound.We first visited there on our first full day in Mwanza

This is a good place to stock up on fresh produce and we often go on a Sunday afternoon to pick up some bargains. We are probably charged Mzungu prices, but a smattering of Kiswahili helps and the prices are really not too bad. Of course it isn’t just Fruit and Veg – there are other stalls too!

Songs of Christmas: Day 7 – Real

Each year I start playing Christmas Music from the start of December.

Each day until Christmas (in addition to my other posts) I will post a link to a video of one of the Christmas tunes on my iPod. Some will be carols, others pop songs. Here is my 7th offering:

Day 7

Nichole Nordeman: Real

I bought this on an album last year, but for some reason I never heard it before this year. When I did I was amazed, such a hauntingly beautiful song, sung by a voice I didn’t know. Not a classic, definitely new but a firm favorite.

If you go to a Nativity this year think about this song and think!
