Richard's arrival in Mwanza on the 29 December 2007 - was very exciting !!
The TV crew was at the airport and Richard was whisked around town in a convertable and an entourage of motorcycles. Code and Richard toured Serengeti Breweries where they got to taste beer fresh off of the assembly line.

Mwanza was an afternoon event at the big stadium, and again, the turn out was really high.

The local dancing was crazy and sexy!
