Chris The Taxi


‘Chris The Taxi’ aka Chris Mweetwa as you’ve never seen him before! Clowning around! Chris was invited for a party last Saturday night at Chanters Lodge by John and Peggy Powell. He’d taken them to Chobe National Park in Botswana for their two day two night safari, and generally looked after them while they were in Livingstone. John clowns around as I mentioned yesterday when we posted a photo of him with some of the Chanters Girls, and he was ‘kind’ enough to give Chris (and me for that matter) a clown nose!

On a more serious note, Chris is one of Livingstone’s best known taxi drivers and inordinately helpful to Chanters Lodge in many ways – vehicle maintenance, road traffic issues and local knowledge in particular. He handles all our transport requirements that we can’t handle ourselves. He’s a member of the Seventh Day Adventist Church and takes his worship and preaching very seriously – though I guess he won’t be in church wearing this particular nose on Saturday!
