Heading back to the states. It’s been a nice vacay.  Ready to get back to work and to just life in general. It’s true you can only depend on yourself for things. Happiness, love, career, these are things that are innately within your own power. I keep learning the tough lesson that if I had this or that or a circumstance was a certain way that things would be different. I think I’m finally starting to learn. Sometimes it takes a journey to figure out a lesson.

Satellite Track My Journey

Get lazy. Stop time. Forget days and dates. Forget the world. Collect memories and seashells. Only decision you need to make is what the next meal should be. Life is tough. Smile at each glance of the turquoise Indian Ocean, and each other. You are still in paradise – r e l a x e d .

Had an all day snorkel and boat to mnemba island starting at 9am and came back around 3pm. Saw some beautiful angel fish and wrasse. Some places had almost better clarity than the Great Barrier Reef.  It was nice and bittersweet seeing all the Valentine’s Day couples. Really made me miss my dad.

All beach day. Walked all the way past the northern point of the island to a really nice hotel with pier. The pier was incredible.

One last early morning game drive before our flight from Serengeti airstrip to Zanzibar.

Saw black backed jackal, African elephant, baby Pumba!

Took a flight from the Seronera air strip to Zanzibar in a twin prop engine plane that seats 11.  A lil bit scary.

Zanzibar:

Mostly Muslim country. Very busy and chaotic traffic. Visited stone town market and saw the various meats and veggies and spices. Then ventured to the Anglican Church which was the sight for the abolition of slavery. The lower floor used to be a holding cell for slaves. Small, dark, damp, dungeon with chains. Great lunch spot Lamann.  Excellent food.

So many alleyways within town.  Saw the Old Fort and the water front.  Headed to Spice Tour and saw all kinds of incredible spice sources. Cinnamon tree, nutmeg, vanilla bean, cardamom, ginger, pepper, just amazing to see all the real natural sources. After that checked into our hotel and hit the beach. Gorgeous white sands. Warm water. Indian Ocean is nice and warm. Came back and had dinner at the hotel. Gorgeous sunset.
