Greeting the Mzungu by okvalle

Greeting the Mzungu

When I arrived in Uganda I could hear everybody say Mzungu. It actually means "aimless wanderer" but is used in Kiswahili to mean white man.
I have always loved to interact with children, and these three loved to greet me as well. It's not so often they see a Mzungu in their village, and also be able to interact with him made their day. I could hear children from behind a fence shouting Mzungu, Mzungu :) I added this picture today since my 2010 project picture was much to dull, but it reflected the situation on that particular day.
Gorgeous kids!! Are you a frequent visitor to Africa?

Thanks @777margo
Ive been in Africa 6 times since 2014, and there will be more after things normalize. I plan to retire in Africa, and found a town in Tanzania I would like to settle down in.
