Yay!! Im super happy this morning, thats 2 nights now I've not been bitten and we managed to sleep through to our alarm going off at 5.45am! I got a much better sleep last night, still wakening a couple of times though but glad I had an early night. And I'm still truely scarred with bites from Zanzibar! On the road by 7am and headed south going up the mountains, the views were amazing! Yesterday on the long truck journey Greg pulled names out of a hat and matc...

That's my 6 nights in Tanzania up, today is a 10 hour transit day through to Malawi. It was much cooler last night and slept no problem. We stopped for lunch in Tanzania before heading to the border, it looked a nice hotel from the outside but was unsure about the chicken we we're eating :( Let's hope my tummy stays strong!! Crossing the border was quite easy, it took around an hour for everyone to be departed from Tanzania and got their Visas for Malawi bu...

Ok so it's now the 4th of December and I am writing about the 17th of November.

We arrived just after lunch at the campsite and got the chance t...

Well today was the proper start of our big adventure, this last 4 nights have been luxury to what we're about to experience apparently!

It was a 5am alarm for breakfast before departing the hotel in order to board the ferry for a 7am sail. The ferry was nothing like I expected it was actuall...

Oh dear oh dear!! I wasn't very well this morning! Had an absolute blast last night though, it was a really good ice breaker getting to know everyone! We left Nungwi at 9am so at least it was a bit of a lie in and we headed straight back to Stone Town where we had the afternoon to ourselves. A few of us headed for the internet cafe as this was probably the last chance we would get a computer until Cape Town!! How will I cope!?! That's like 31 days without emai...
