Stone Town/Zanzibar

Am finally opening a book to read and savoring a diet coke which has been super hard to find in zanzibar and tanzania. Didn't realize I was feining (sp?) for one.

We said our goodbyes to Bernice, tina, vicky and jess as they left for dar today and its just me, sila, and alan in stone town. Bernice's fav part in zanzibar was prob stone town.

Even though we've been on a beach for five days, I feel like our days have been chop full of drama and activity in zanzibar.

1. Alan on his first day in zanzibar gets strangled by a jellyfish and goes into shock. Jess saves the day with her swahili and finds a doctor. Well, alan also saves the day cuz I would imagine a worse situation if one of the gals got bitten instead. He now has battle scars.

2. our last night was spent at a full moon party in which much alcohol was consumed. Bernice proved to be a "kai lee" like aggressor and egged everyone to overimbibe. Jess proved to be a casualty and proceeded to throw up from the van on our ride home. She barely was able to get up for the ride into dar.

3. Day was full of activities consisting of a spice tour with the fruit man, all day snorkeling at mnemba island with best lunch ever, and dolphin swimming which proved a bit sketch

4. Tina catches the flu at the end of our trip and misses full moon party

All in all we had a successful trip with some minor mishaps. He he.

On to zambia!
