This week Ilonka was given the first maize from a pastor from Dodoma. So finally, after years of bad harvests we are now looking forward to a more than sufficient harvest for the people around Dodoma. Lise and our nightguard Lamek celebrated by roasting the maize on the fire today! Posted by Kees and Ilonka Barendse. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). A few more links.

Weblog Kees and Ilonka Barendse: ZBZ back in Dodoma!
http://keesandilonka.blogspot.com/2008/08/zbz-back-in-dodoma.html
Weblog Kees and Ilonka Barendse. Monday, August 25, 2008. ZBZ back in Dodoma! Finally, after more than 2 years, ZBZ is back in Dodoma. This aircraft was severely damaged in an accident in April 2006. After long discussions with the insurance company it was finally decided that the aircraft would be repaired in the USA. In April 2007 we disassembled it and packed it in containers which were shipped to America. And now, more than a year later, the aircraft has returned to Dodoma. August 26, 2008 at 3:32 AM.

Weblog Kees and Ilonka Barendse. Sunday, March 1, 2009. Oh no it's raining again! After a few weeks of dry season the rains seem to be returning to Kampala. Earlier this week there was a huge rainstorm which did quite a lot of damage to trees and powerlines. Today there was heavy rain again, and because all the leaves blown off the trees earlier ended up in our garden, all the drains were blocked. This caused our garden to flood nicely, which Lise found very interesting! Posted by Kees and Ilonka Barendse.

Weblog Kees and Ilonka Barendse. Sunday, March 9, 2008. So, it was time again for another swimming gala for the kids. A couple of local primary school met last Saturday for a swimming competition at de kids school. Lots of fun, and they did really well! There was television crews everywhere, and Tom even got interviewed! It was right at the evening news, so secretly we are planning a trip to the 2012 Olympics! For more pictures look at SWIMMINGGALA.

Weblog Kees and Ilonka Barendse. Tuesday, April 10, 2007. Camping trip into the bush. It was a nice trip, hot at daytime, and very cold in the mornings. At night the moon lit up the place, and the stars were amazing! Only thing that went wrong was that Kees managed to squash a Nairobi Fly, a tiny little beetle (1cm) which has an extremely potent poison in it's body which comes out when it gets squashed. Less than 1mg of poison is released this way! The next day it looked like this:. A few more links.

Weblog Kees and Ilonka Barendse: A boatride on the lake
http://keesandilonka.blogspot.com/2010/12/boatride-on-lake.html
Weblog Kees and Ilonka Barendse. Monday, December 27, 2010. A boatride on the lake. Currently the boat is stored at Kajjansi airfield, and the nearest place to launch it is at Lutembe, 3 km away over a dirt road. Because the trailer is not designed very well it takes about an hour to get there! Posted by Kees and Ilonka Barendse. Can we book a ride? December 27, 2010 at 12:43 PM.

Weblog Kees and Ilonka Barendse. Thursday, December 30, 2010. MAF in Uganda has it's own airfield between Kampala and Entebbe. It's called Kajjansi and it is home to a number of small aircraft operators. MAF starting building a small aircraft hangar in the mid 90s which was supposed to be a temporary facility. However, soon various additions were made to the basic structure, and now it has been MAF Uganda's aircraft maintenance hangar for many years. Early 2010 the site was being prepared, but unfortunat...
