Strange sightings in Tanzania

Some things that I have seen in Tanzania that I doubt you'll see in America

      -While grocery shopping, a worker walking barefoot through the grocery store carrying a tray with tea to serve to the cashier, so she can take tea while she rings you up.

      -A cobra in our yard (ok, I didn't see it, but our guard did)

      -A mongoose in our yard.  The dogs chased it, and the guard caught it and threw it over our wall.

      -A tigerfish while swimming (they are poisonous, so watch out)

      -A thorn spider.  They aren't poisonous, but they do look really cool.

      -An iron for ironing clothes, that uses a piece of coal to heat it.

      -A man selling fish from the back of his bike.
 
      -A jackfruit tree, cashew tree, coconut tree, custard apple tree, and mango tree growing in my yard.
      -A troop of blue monkeys coming through our yard, at least once a week.

      -Mudskippers-- fish that breath air and skip across the top of the water.

Have a nice day!
