Today was a blast!! The morning was overcast but the scenery was still amazing. We had a really nice breakfast before a group of us went snorkelling and scuba diving. The boat was not what I expected, it was a typical Tanzanian wooden thing! We were fitted with wetsuits, flippers and our snorkels and off we went! I can't explain how pretty the scenery was, the photos I took don't even do it justice. We travelled down the coast of Zanzibar for a good hour and ...

It was an early morning, with breakfast at 7am and the bus leaving at 8am but felt amazingly fresh after a good nights sleep. We were heading north to the beach for 2 nights which was bliss.

It's famous for the spices the island produces but they don't export any of the products. We stopped at a spice fa...

Well I had my alarm all set for 4am in time to finish packing, get ready and be able to phone Jen and Kylie after the dinner dance as I was getting picked up at 5am!!

I woke up early as I had to go to the office after breakfast and check in but also wanted to send an email ;) since I had no wifi last night. How will I cope when I'm camping for 27 odd nights and no connection to the shire! Today ...

Can't believe it's Thursday already, it's another cold and overcast morning in Limuru! My new roomie, Pippie who's 18 from Holland, was up all last night with a stomach bug and was sick most of the night. She thinks she only got about two hours sleep, I felt really sorry for her this morning! Anyways she's taking the day off so hopefully she's a bit better later. At His Image today, the two 8 week old babies Hope and Angel were leaving to go to another orphana...
