USAMBARA MOUNTAINS: THE BEST OF TANZANIA Kids falls off his bike, Usambara mountains.Hiking in the Usambara mountains was our favourite part of Tanzania.Villagers in the Usambara mountains were very different to the rest of the country.Boy plays with his spinning top in the street.Young boys spinning"wheels" down hills.Chameleons were plentiful, although without our guide, I doubt we would have seen any.Girls relaxing in their fields, half way along our hike, Usambara Mountains.As we were taking pics of the villagers, this fellow was taking some of us.We hiked for 3 days, 2 nights, past fields, markets, up and down hills.Like kids anywhere, these guys find nothing funnier than their mate getting hurt.Hikes begin from the small town of Lushoto, where this produce market takes place. We highly reccommend TUPANDE for guiding, located at the bus terminal. Avoid freelancers.Shy farm girl.The final sunset on our hike. Unbeknown to us, our guide's wife was waiting for us, making dinner in town.These kids rolled these container lids up and down the hill for hours, stopping only to clown around with us.This large church facility was our comfortable lodgings for one night.These strong women were a reminder of the perilous existence of people in rural Africa.A sprawling outdoor market selling just about anything.A substantial house by rural African standards.Fields, houses and villages.Houses in a farming community in the hills,Love the face on that small fella!Squeezed onto the slop to a stream, a market.
