then converted from some mesi.Questa cohabitation me very busy lately, my old laptop has since passed away (tear) and now I'm writing for the Mac `Mare.Ricomincero still my virtual tour to Switzerland, but not limited to, now. As always different events have happened in the past months in Ticino and Switzerland, the last in order of time was the shameful descent of our president's pants before a Bedouin `I will come back soon ... soon, hopefully will return home from our two connazzionali Libya.
we go! And as we go to a typical African market in a small town you take the Africans and the Matatu! Too bad that only 2 km from the arrival gives the means ... Glad, Amos?
How can 'see e'ottima maintenance, as it did to burst?
some natives in the distance they go past on the Piki Piki of them 'just minutes after the injury (without paying the ticket to the Matatu). Ok, we have finished the journey on foot, vah.
Here we are! The market and 'large enough, and there is a lot of stuff. There 's the angle fish ...
the corner fruit and vegetables ... ...
... household items (in the photo are perforated containers to distill alcohol) ...
... Tobacco! (But not the maps !)...
... butcher ...
... and the market cows / goats. This takes the edge of a soccer field where cows venture to eat part of the pitch and scagazzarci cheerfully. Hopefully then we play with cleats wit 'you know that slips!
Anyways, 'let's leave the market. A Tabaka there is' a special 'which is for people from all towns' nearby, or the soap-stones! They are easy to work with stones that are extracted from a couple of quarries in the area and are then patiently carved and polished by experience that the natives have become the true artists with a style all their own. The goal 'of Tabaka shops selling these little works of art.
meow!
tipiche figure di uomini stilizzati (li fanno praticamente tutti cosi')
Quella che vedete ritratta e' la bottiglia della piu' deliziosa bibita che abbia mai provato: la Stoney Tangawizi (detta anche Sparletta). E' tipo la Sprite ma appena speziata e, udite udite, piccante! Da provare assolutamente! Mi rivolgo quindi a tutti coloro che abitano in grandi citta', specialmente a Milano, per buttare un occhio all'interno dei negozietti gestiti da Africani per vedere se si riesce a trovare questa delizia. Cosi' se vi va la provate, che ne vale punishment, and especially on its availability warned me 'cause I do not think I could more' to help it, once back in Italy.
"I talked to a goat" (Umberto Saba, 1910)
Kenyans, as cats do not give me no satisfaction I'm throwing the goats. I must say I am very sympathetic, and the pups are very soft. I would love to adopt one.
The market Kisii (the city 'more' largest in the area a half hour drive from Tabaka)
A detail of "stall" the shoes. Unfortunately, no stiletto 10: (
thank Luigi for taking this picture for me that won the 2009 Pulitzer Prize. Please click to enlarge and observe well that the expression of Albano to scare a group of kids screaming and extreme heat waves his right hand denture adhesive. A masterpiece! (And I 'was then reported that this trick is often used)
A class of primary school of Tabaka
seee the cocks you can get out before the end to the lessons! There 's also the network to make sure we avert sudden leaks!
"What? Tabaka? Kenya?? Noooooo! I wanted to be born white, in Monaco, and full of money!"
Under the direction of a team of Italian botanists will be the way (to my chagrin) the killing of this huge tree that was threatening to collapse on some houses and above all the vineyards of Albania! Scrupulously following every Kenyan law on occupational safety of the victim begins to thin out a little round 'of branches: the string you see is not' for her safety but to get there 'that the branch will not collapse as he and rooftops below 'barefoot simply clinging to the trunk that vigorous spring machetes. We are in the hospital courtyard.
The team of experts assesses the damage caused by the fall of one of the main branches. Fortunately, and not 'hurt anyone having the air that is pulled and' proceeded to clear the area by all employees at the time with a shot of the branch and rope 'was removed altogether. Next was 'done and a meeting in which' meticulously reconstructed the exact dynamics of the fall to go back to the cause of sderenamento scaffold to prevent the episode, I can still repeat. Which in fact is not 'more' occurred. Otherwise What was the team of experts?
In the courtyard of the hospital there 's also a small herd of pigs, sheep and poultry. The photo immortala i prodi macellai intenti a depezzare il cadavere dello sfortunato maiale di turno. Come si puo' notare il tutto avviene in ambiente controllato e refrigerato con superfici lavabili in acciaio inossidabile, indumenti protettivi sterili, strumenti di misura all'avanguardia e ovviamente personale selezionato e qualificato. Non e' che il primo che passa di li' puo' curiosare o partecipare all'operazione. Per quanto mi riguarda io voglio vedere il meno possibile di cosa fanno, di come trasportano, di come cucinano. So che trovo il cibo pronto, e' buono, non ho mai avuto mal di pancia e sono ancora vivo.
Qualche foto del nostro safari al parco Mara (le foto non sono state fatte tutte with 5800. Here it served its zoom) Here we have breakfast (we left at 5 am) on a hill just before the entrance to the park you see in the background. Albano is holding the brick milk and shows off proudly. Forgive the "backlight" but if the other side did not vedva a chip only across the savannah we have behind. (5800 and geotagged photos)
This am I unmindful of the dangers and prohibitions ("The Usual Italian") I leave the car and put his blessed in front of a bunch of buffalo (the animals that abounded more '. As we will see million). (5800 and geotagged photos)
Un video dei soliti bufali che correvano e attraversavano in continuazione la strada.
Questa foto fatta da Fulvio colla sua Casio ritrae un gruppo di ippopotami sulla riva del fiume Mara (da cui prende il nome tutto) intenti a cozzare al sole. Ce ne erano diversi anche in acqua ma sono praticamente invisibili dato che spuntano solo le orecchie e gli occhi. Ma fanno dei versi che si sentono a centinaia di metri di distanza! Pare che siano abbastanza incazzosi e ci avvisano che pur essendo erbivori non disdegnano di uccidere se gli si va a rompere le palle. Mi fido sulla parola. Siamo a pochi metri dal confine con la Tanzania
La vera botta di culo della giornata! A beautiful cheetah resting in the shade of a tree! The we went very close to 3 / 4 meters, but he did not seem to care for our presence. It 'was very exciting to see him so' close, like a docile cat colors and beautiful face very sympathetic: micioooo kitty kitty .... (Photo by Luigi. Mine was not enough zoom)
A well deserved lunch break (with bread and Parmesan cheese! A luxury!) In the shade of one of the beautiful and solitary trees in the savannah. How can 'see the spaces are incredibly exterminated. A few seconds after the photo when I was sincerely considering the idea to start running and screaming to get away with a huge herd of zebra my shoulders, we were joined by a group of soldiers armed with rifles on a pickup that we have given notice to board the flight on the Land Cruiser because it 's dangerous and can not be' ("The Usual Italian"). Had arrived 30 seconds more 'I would have caught a shot late in the buttocks and probailmente would still locked up in some stinking prison cell in a test of justice and customs in Africa.

Juventino you deserve this! Going hungry in the bush in a row with the buffalo! (Photo by Fulvio)
Here the elephants! Look at that cute puppy with the mother! (Photo by Fulvio)
And finally a little 'relaxation of the "Mara Serena Lodge," a place so cool (restaurant and hotel) on a hill where you have a view over most of the park and you can see herds of buffalo and giraffes like panorama. (5800 geotagged photos)
The rest of the pictures of animals scrausi (various antelopes, gazelles, birds, warthogs, ostriches, giraffes) saving you the sense 'seems to be the blog of National Geographic)
Some photos of our trip to Nyagwethe, where a Bergamo, Franco Pini, built out of nothing and everything to only one set of facilities (hospitals, schools, water supply) which have developed a small little village.
This, for example, and 'the new secondary school, partly under construction and some already' working. Featured capers around there that 'the legendary Luigi, very nice surgeon of Verona.
is the main road (actually, the only) through the village. How can 'see the traffic is not' a problem in the square sentitoe sheep and goats take possession of the road. There were also two who are not able to continue arguing and were dying of laughter between the lines that were tested and it pulled. :)
The kids on the beach they were eager to get to the photo in front of the loro casette in riva al lago, eccoli qui in gruppo, in un autoscatto e in un piccolo video!
