Stanley Around Town

Stanley loves running around Botswana's capital city: Gaborone. He loves to eat new foods at new places and make new friends!

Wearing a Queen Latifah t-shirt is a real conversation starter!

Here is Stanley with his papaya smoothie and his friend Oscar.

Here is Stanley with his friend Thabo, whose job it is to decorate ostrich eggs, yes, ostrich eggs! Those eggs are big (eating one ostrich egg is the same as eating about 22 chicken eggs)!



Here is the American Ambassador to Botswana, Kate Canavan, with her arm around Stanley!



Here is Stanley making friends with a group of girls at the supermarket, of all places!


This ice cream vendor peddles by once a day, honking the horn on his handlebar (can you see it?) to let people know ice cream is fast approaching! Stanley loves the lemon-lime popsicle the most!



Here is Stanley wearing his Nelson Mandela t-shirt and playing hide-and-seek in the traditional baskets.


Stanley at the intersection of Zebra and Elephant!



Now Stanley pretending to ride a zebra, but really it's a sculpture of a zebra just the right size for him!



Seems Stanley really likes smoothies! This one is made of lychee fruits. It's called a Chilla! And Stanley is chillin' with his penguin t-shirt. Those penguins live very near Botswana in South Africa.



And then there's the local barbershop where Stanley likes to get his haircut because he always wants to look neat and professional (even when he is not in his suit) so he can make a good first impression when he meets his new friends.
