Lamai

Our first harvest

14 December 2011

On the way down to our mess, just right next to the path is thisbeautiful shrub called sour plum. As you might have come across in a previousblog, the sour plum and the fruit it bears is known to the Maasai as ‘Lama’ or ‘Lamai’.That can’t be a coincidence right?

And it isn’t!
