Serengeti to Mwanza

Now in Mwanza, after travelling about 5 hours from the Serengeti. On our way we were lucky to see some baby giraffes and a whole whack of hippos - about 20 together in one area. We also saw a lot of zebra and wildebeest - apparently there are 2.5 million in the Serengeti alone.

We are here in Mwanza for our visit to the school and meeting the 100 girls who will go to our school. Tonight we have our official dinner with 10 of the girls and some officials from Tanzania. I hope we get to spend some time talking with them and learning more about them.

Tomorrow will be pretty special as we visit the school. Maddy will be helping the other young girl here, Hillary, film a commercial for Because I am a Girl, talking with the girls and teaching them about the program. It should be very interesting.

Off to dinner, will be back again tomorrow afternoon/night.

We miss everyone!!!
