It was not a very eventful day as it was mostly a matter of getting to the Kilimanjaro airport and taking a flight on [not so] Precision Air to Dar es Salaam, the largest city in Tanzania. Precision Air is a bankrupt local airline in Tanzania that is looking for a government bailout. Meanwhile, flight schedules are a guessing game. You must pay attention as they will move a flight time earlier with little notice.
The flight went without incident and we checked into the Dar es Salaam Serena Hotel which is a very nice hotel. We got to experience some luxury before we venture out to the bush.

The view from my hotel room window. Note no US flag. It would probably be too much of a target.
