Riding the MV Liemba was to be our third activity on the trip. Unfortunately, the Liemba is undergoing repairs, and delayed for one week. They are waiting for a generator part which needs to come from Germany. We are not surprised. We were lucky to get a guided tour of her. John was very excited to see the engine room and really, the whole ship. Third class berthing was on the bottom, then second, first and VIP on the very top.

The choo cha!
My favorite!
The spare parts.

The Liemba has wooden decks, which are slowly being replaced and repaired. The steel deck is getting a new coat of red lead paint.

Because the Liemba didn't sail, we kayaked to Jacobson's beach on Lake Tanganyika.
Hmmmm...the choo cha scares me a little.
