May 9 (Team B)
We spent the day in Arusha, walking the 3km from Masai Camp where we are staying to the city centre. We finally know how celebrities like Brangelina and TomKat feel like with a swarm of paparazzi following their every move. We experienced the local "flycatchers", men who follow you and hound you and try to sell you things. They weren't dangerous but let's just say they are very persistent (cough...cough...). It's a very odd feeling going to lunch for 1.5hrs and having the same men waiting for you outside. Maybe they can tell we are "fresh meat" due to our pasty skin ;)
One of the chefs at Masai Camp taught us a few phrases in Swahili that will hopefully help us deter them when we head back into town tomorrow.
