Well i cannot believe what I am about to say...... It's time for my final blog!!! I must admit, that for the last 3 days I have been trying to postpone my flight, so that I can come back to Arusha for an extra week after Mombassa, to my disappointment this could not be done and I have had to face the fact that I have to come home and sort myself out.
