Just an FYI – we won’t have a wealthy, massive-amount-of-land-owning neighbor named Dr. Congo when we get to TZ. The DR on the first map stands for Democratic Republic.
Please pardon the cheese…

Haha, I love the second map… isn’t that white space on the southwest border Zambia? Wonder why it doesn’t get a mention…

Yes, that is Zambia. Good eye! It doesn’t get mentioned because I got the map from an organization that’s showing their “region” and they aren’t in Zambia. It was the best map I could find of a close up of the general area around Tanzania.
