Saturday

A lazy day Saturday. Pretty much lazed around reading a Val McDermid mystery, a favorite. Some watermelon--very fresh, sweet and juicy.  Opened a bottle of Guinness Foreign Extra Stout. Never heard of it, but nice, a little thicker/more syrupy than what we get in the US. Sharp, then a little sweeter and hoppy, more like US Guinness stout.  Nice full flavored. The bottle says it is brewed with extra hops and barley. hmm. $1.12 US. 1750 TS (Tanzanian Shillings). Pretty much a bargain for a Guinness.  It's good to be lazy sometimes!
But it is Saturday night and I'm also hearing the thumping of rhythmic music from somewhere outside my bungalow, guards partying down? Landlady? Who knows. Music is the world language and playing loud when one has neighbors, is world ritual.

In case you did not think the palm tree yesterday looked so large, here are pics from another perspective that may help:
