You can learn about what happened on the plane and how I got home. But, before I left, I want to show you my favorite photos from the trip.
Memories of a Holiday in Tanzania Africa
The most memorable photo I took was of this little boy who is a Tanzania Albino and a Bushman. Albinos are considered Ghost people in Tanzania and severely persecuted. According to the people of the region and tradition, the children are bad luck. I don’t know how a person can be bad luck.
