Zanzibar
Drove To Arusha yesterday and bid our guide SP goodbye. We spent countless hours with him over the past week and came to know him very well. He hopes to travel to the US with his wife and daughter and has an open invitation to stay with usAnother flight on small plane and short drive to Stonetown on Zanzibar. Ancient city with narrow winding pedestrian pathways through city, congested streets, hot with a lot of commotion. Sirens and evening prayers broadcast from various locations occurring after sunset in this Muslim city. Air condition not working- moved to a different room, not the best stay.Traveled today to the east coast of the island. Interesting drive through city with many markets including fish market with sharks and rays being sold literally from the street. Amazing that people live under these conditions.Arrived at resort and pleased to see beautiful beaches, clean air conditioned bungalow and great pool. Most relaxing day since departure with 3 more to go. It will be nice to stay in one place for a few days

did you buy a shark for the "barbie"?
Now that you are at the beach it must feel at least a tiny bit familiar. Love the pics and commentary!
