CLICK THE TITLE AND MAKE IT A HABIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!At Moshi, there were 4 teams in all: The International School of Uganda (ISU), The International School of Tanzania (IST), Arusha (ISMAC), and The International School of Moshi (ISM). ISM is a boarding school and the host of the sporting event. I competed in basketball, volleyball, and soccer/football as it is called here for boys in grades 6-9. It was tons of fun. The ISU boys went undefeated in all sports except soccer in which we lost only one game to our rivals IST.
Sorry it took so long. I was waiting for pix but they didn't come. If I can I will post them later.

get to do any cultural events? see Kilimanjaro?
the only things that we got to do outside of sports was have dinner at a local resteraunt and we went to the base camp of mt kili.
we were goin to go up to this big waterfall and go swimming in the water hole, but b/c of the intense rain, climbing up would have been almost impossible if you wanted to avoid injury.
but we had a great view of mt kili from the place that we stayed, better than that at the base camp.
there's much less snow on the top than people say that there used to be.
You need to ask G'pa Princeton about that one...
The permanent snow and ice on the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro is disappearing at the rate of about a foot and a half of glacial ice lost per year. This loss is primarily due to increasing average annual temperatures in the region, and scientists are speculating that the glaciers could be completely gone from Kilimanjaro by the year 2015. This ice cap formed more than 11,000 years ago, and 80% of the ice fields have been lost in only the last century.
