A slow day today, went on a spice tour in the the morning which was actually a lot more interesting that I thought it would be - who knew that mace & nutmeg came from the same plant? Had the otion of going to the beach or returning to Stonetown after the tour and as I'll be spending the next 4 days on the beach opted to go back to Stonetown and continue wandering the narrow alleyways, it's a very cool place. Had a look at the House of Wonders, so called because it was the first house in East Africa to have electric lights, running water and an elevator - all wondrous things. Went down to Forodhani Gardens for dinner - a giant open air BBQ - probably the best thing on offer was the sugar cane juice. And that was my day - I did say it was a slow one. Here's to a few more like it.
