<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lordmarcovan, post: 24563156, member: 10461&quot;]I like it, and would cheerfully add one to my collection.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have vivid childhood memories of the harbor in Mombasa.&nbsp; We sailed to Africa aboard a Greek freighter in &#039;72, and Mombasa was our final port of disembarkation.&nbsp; They loaded us and all our worldly possessions (we moved to East Africa for a year) into these rickety little boats which sank so low into the water that the waves were lapping only about a foot below the gunwales!&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>It was kind of scary.&nbsp; But memorable.&nbsp; It was everything you&#039;d imagine about disembarking from a freighter into a colorful, exotic, bustling, Third World port city.&nbsp; Though it wasn&#039;t always fun at the time, I&#039;m now glad I had an unconventional, gypsy-ish sort of childhood.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
