After 7 sleepless hours I finally arrived at muscat... Well what a place, it's essentially just an airport in the middle if the dessert. The flight itself was comfortable with just about everything complimentary that possibly could be! Wash kit, pillow, blanket etc posh or what! If that's economy I dread to think what first class got!
(A little later)
Well I'm not waiting for the second plane journey of the weekend, this time to Zanzibar, lets just hope my baggage doesn't get lost! Oh and I've decided I couldn't be an Arab! Far to much dressing in white!
Arriving in Zanzibar
Well after saying about the Arabs I end up sitting next to one for 5 hours! Didn't say a lot really in fact I don't think he uttered a word the whole journey! Although he did give my his bread roll he didn't want, not sure how to take that!
Anything the baggage didn't get lost thankfully although I did make a fool of myself collecting it. One of the porters brought it over to me and kept talking about tipping, well I just stood there staring blankly trying to figure out why I needed to tip my bag! It was only later it clicked he wanted a tip!
After finally arriving at my start hotel it felt really weird, I can't yet put my finger on why bit it just did!
Right well the adventure really starts tomorrow as at the crack of dawn need to meet the taxi to the teaching project!
Not sure how often I can update in the next week as its a remote village but ill try as much as possible!
Just a little update on the end, found something to eat, although it turns out that spaghetti Bol in Tanzania has carrots onions and the mince well I don't think it was beef! When I eat half of it I felt really bad as the look the restaurateur gave me was like I'd stabbed him so much so half hour later he brought a lot of fruit to my room free!
