After a couple of days of wandering the maze of little alleyways here, bargaining for cloth and stopping to sip cold drinks and stare out at the turquoise sea, we are heading off to find a bungalow on the beach for the next 6 days. We've got some good recommendations and a great taxi driver named Howli who brought us from the airport to help in our search.
They say the rains are going to start. Yesterday there was a loud bang of thunder, just one, right on schedule they say. If they start we hear there will be short periods of rain till April. We imagine ourselves reading lots, relaxing, and coming back to Stone Town on the 28th. We've got ferry tickets for the 29th to Dar and to our long flight back to Rome.
Happy Spring my sweet. Your trip sounds amazing, keep on and stay safe xo
ReplyDeletesounds great...so different than sitting at home and watching the NDP convention on CBC television. Personally I wish Olivia wanted to lead...her speech last night was so motivating and once again, brought me to tears! What a women she is!!!!
ReplyDeleteI love being able to live vicariously through your posts so when you mentioned 'the return' flight to Rome, I had a knot in my tummy and the thought that went through my head was...NO WAY! five weeks couldn't have gone that quickly. I recovered when I realized that you (and to some degree me) still have all week to look forward to new adventures...smiles and hugs
Cool!
