We woke up and quickly gathered our belongings and walked down to the beach. There were a herd of buffalos sitting on the sand which made me wonder where they all go after? We didn't have time for breakfast and we noticed loads of other backpackers who were also waiting for the boat eating plain bageuttes. As it got closer to the departure time everyone grrabbed their backpacks and headed to the shore as three long boats pulled up. It seemed like there were too m...

Day four: When i woke up Dan said he's planned to go to the waterfall on the other island so i decided to have a day by myself on the beach with a beer. We went across the road for breakfast, i ordered shakshuka which i'd been meaning to try, it was tasty but got a bit boring after a while and i couldn't eat it all.

With our stomachs full we headed onto the beach, this time i decid...

As we were waiting, Dan went to the ATM because we heard to stock up on cash as there is only one ATM on the island which is usually out of service. As he was away, everyone began boarding the mini bus so i carried mine and his backpack on in order to secure two seats together. Everyone had got on the bus except for Dan he wa...
