On Sunday, Moshi was packed with people who came for the Kilimarathon. The starting line was right by our house so Eli and I headed down to check it out. The marathon began at 6:30am. Although we were up at 5:30 that morning, we didn't make it for the marathon. We did arrive on the street just in time to see the 5k start at 7:30. There were thousands of people participating. All kinds - young, old, thin, fat, white, black. It was great. I got emotional watching it. Community events do that to me. I love seeing different types of people blending together. I told George that the Orwa family should do it next year. It looked so fun and I can't wait to take part in it.
(There was a great view of Mt. Kilimanjaro for all the runners.)
