17-22 Bukoba, Tanzania

Bukoba, on the west shore of Lake Victoria, is a thoroughly delightful small town. It has bluffs, birds, beer on the beach with Indian food, beer in town with African food, a market, a museum, a fishing village and a pier... even a club where young Tanzanians welcomed us to join them in pool and ping pong.
 
17 Here's that on-beach dining location. 18 We stayed at the Lutheran guesthouse, a modest, well-designed hotel. On the grounds were these containers, the kind featured in U.S. discussions of homeland security. Here they're all over, used for storage and to house small businesses.
