24.08.2012 - Departure from Dar es Salaam

Getting up at 4.15 a.m...

After a good night's sleep in the best beds of Dar es Salaam, we unfortunately had to leave them again at 4.15 in the morning.

Thanks to a less than tepid shower and toast as well as a coffee substitute drink we are thus invigorated now  ready for the last stretch of the journey (Dar es Salaam - Manyoni - aprox. 8 hrs.) in the black-red-gold-green party bus (also the best one in the whole of Africa, by the way :-))

23.08.2012 - Dar es Salam

Finally we arrived!

We touched down safely in Dar es Salaam with an hour's delay (caused by a defect airplane tyre at Dubai).

Meanwhile we have arrived at the Kurasini Center. Hopefully we will be able to have a look at our rooms and get some food soon ;-)

23.08.2012 - Dubai

 

At last we startet our journey to Tanzania yesterday late in the afternoon. Our flight left Frankfurt at 10 p.m. taking us to Dubai which ist where I am writing this  :-)

All of us are still feeling great and we are looking forward to the next part of the journey which is about to start (Dubai - Dar es Salaam).

Service and matinée in the protestant church in Gomaringen

We have delighted and astonished our audience - locally as well as on a  regional and soon also on an international  level -several times before.

This time we decided to perform in the church of the town our choir originated in. All of us gathered for the service on August 12th - for the second time in our Tanzania-outfits - providing 3 songs for the service.

Final preparations for Tanzania

Let's go! Final preparations for Tanzania

Last Tuesday we had our last rehearsal with some of the adults coming with us on our journey. Together we rehearsed some classical pieces. Afterwards we got some important pieces of information sorting out the room distribution and some open questions.

05.08.12 - Visiting Gernsbach

Take eight cars, fill them with 28 singers, a conductor, a vocal trainer/piano player, a drummer and a little fan club and off we go to Gernsbach. Arriving at our destination after an approximately 2 hours' curvy drive we have to quickly get ourselves into voice with a few songs and check how much room there is for the choreography.
