On a hot steamy day in Dar-es-Salaam
Mama and I went out to market
Streets abuzz with flare and color
Carefree and joyous every hour
Skipped home with plum tomatoes in basket
Busy, colorful street market on a hot, hot day in Dar-es-Salaam, Tanzania
Can you spot the coconuts, bright bowls, sugar cane, and bottled soda?
Bargaining the cost of bright, red tomatoes
Colorful umbrellas for laughter and shade—’twas 45 degrees celcius, no joke!
Fashion for the hot weather: kangas, kangas galore

Hahaha. The heat in Dar is ridiculous. It has a life of its own! I love the sun, but not enough to live in Dar.
