TAR 20 EP 8 "Let Them Drink Their Haterade" (Lake Manyara, Tanzania)
apskip:
I agree with cattychic that Karatu is possible. Before her post, I was not cognizant of where Karatu is. However, coming out of Ngorongoro Crater on the west and a little north, Karatu is some miles before Mtu wa Mbu. I hope that the map shown here will display their relationship properly:

Mtu wa Mbu is right under the Micarto Safaris ad overlay on the right side of this map.
cattychic:
apskip , could you bring those pic's over please
Here you go! Thanks!

cattychic,
It's a map, not pictures. In my RFF it displays as a map by just clicking on the link and waiting maybe 10 seconds for it to load.

I was talking about the pic's I found of Karatu , sorry I should've clarified that. Thank's georgiapeach for posting them for me. I really gotta learn how to post the pic's .

Here is some diverse information that bears on the question of whether the locus of tasks in Ep. 8 is in Karatu or in Mto Wa Mbu. I did not have this perspective until this study effort, but in fact the distances involved are quite short:
southeastern edge of Ngorngoro Crater to Karatu 12 miles
Karatu to Mto Wa Mbu 13 miles
Mto Wa Mbu 57 miles
The population of Karatu is 19, 803 and of Mto Wa Mbu is 33,000 so the latter is a slightly more populous place.
Here are some images (out of a thousand plus I looked at for each place) that apply for Mto Wa Mbu(see below)
When I compare that to the second picture in cattychic's picture gallery for Karatu, it is not a call I can make.
However, the one thing I can say is that neither place appears to have significant beekeeping. for that teams will probably have to return to Arusha to the TWIRI: Tanzania Wildlife Research Institute and BeeKeeping (previously identified, but not by me).
