The BIG post
October 9, 2007 by Stephen Day.

The equator is an interesting thing…. It is 6 AM and it is full daylight out. That is going to take a while to get used to.
Well, I arrived in Dar es Salaam last night at about 9:45 pm. I got my luggage (both pieces made it) and flew through immigration (my resident visa was waiting for me there). I walked out of customs and there was Sandy McCaan and there husband (the twoappointed missionaries from ECUSA posted at Msalato and two young American women who are also working at Msalato.
I went to a local ATM and got 200,000 Tanzanian Shillings (which is actually about $150 US…. But a lot of bills because 10,000 TSZ is the highest denomination bill. The McCaans dropped me off at my hotel, which is really quite lovely and I was checked in and in my room by 10:30 pm. I was able to get to sleep by a little after midnight. I hope to get to back to sleep soon. I just want to share some of my initial experiences.
