| The breakfast!! Crapes, fried veggies, and many kinds of fruits... So Africa!! Because there weren't any meats so I had a little complain but I got stuffed.  |
||||
I looked at Mt.Kilimanjaro from the hotel. Just 2 days ago, we were there and enjoying the treck.  |
||||
| ---------- Moshi Town Center --------- | ||||
I had some time to spare to get some souvenirs until my flight so Tammy, Franziska and I walked around Moshi town center. |
||||
|
||||
| ---------- Local Souvenirs --------- |
||||
Tammy and I parted from Franziska, because she told us that she wanted to stop by somewhere. So Tammy took me |
||||
| to a supermarket. In Moshi, there were just small supermarkets but I could get some local items that we can't find any other places. |
||||
|
||||
| ---------- A Rude Homeless --------- |
||||
After I finished choosing the souvenirs, I was in line in front of a cashier. Then, an old lady with one leg and a crutch got close to me and talked to me. |
||||
|
So we cheerfully talked. But suddenly, she said, "Hey, you know, I just have one leg. So give me some money!!" But I was very very scared |
||||
|
because I didn't know much about Tanzania and it was the 1st time for me to experience a homeless begging me for money. I didn't know what to do... |
||||
On top of that, she strongly started push herself towards me when I took my money out of my purse to pay at the cashier. |
||||
|
It was like as if she was saying to me, "Hey!! Give me some!!,"
hitting me with her elbow. |
||||
| Then, when the cashier gave back some changes to me, again she started to elbow me again and again. Finally, I exploded from the frustration. I shouted at her, "Hey!! Go away!!" |
||||
I sympathized her who had some problems in the past. But I don't like people like her who think that they can do anything to get money because of their misfortunes. |
||||
| It's not something that people should force others to help them because their misfortunes are nothing to do with other people. |
||||
| What I mean is...... At the platform, I often see old people who want to have a priority seats ingore the line and try cut in. I think the lady was the same. |
||||
|
It doesn't matter if you're a Japanese or foreigner, I don't like this type of people and don't want to be kind to them! |
||||
| After I went outside, I asked Tammy, "Hey, what's up with her? You also always see many rude homeless like her? Do I have to help her?" |
||||
| Then, he replied," No! You don't have to! It's not a duty. Never mind. You didn't get wrong," to make me feel better. |
||||
To be continued!! |
