Just me now

Well, the rest of the team has officially left (at the airport now), and I'm staying at the Ellis' house now. Yesterday we took a ferry to Zanzibar where we walked a winding narrow road full of shops, vendors, and crazy motorcyclists and ended up at a restaurant with a beautiful balcony view of the ocean. Definitely an adventure, and a tiring day for the whole team. Today we had some free time in the morning, so Emily and I relaxed a bit, packed our bags, walked to a market down the street, came back and hung out with some of the team by the pool, and then checked out at noon. We left the hotel at around 1:30 after having lunch, and went to a village where we saw different traditional houses and huts. Then an African music/dancing group played some songs for us, which was lots of fun. We stayed in that village for the rest of the day, had dinner there, and then said our goodbyes as the team left for the airport. So now it's just me and the Ellises, and we'll be meeting up with the Greeners again in Tanzania before they head back to Rwanda early next week. I'll keep you posted on life here whenever I can :) Miss you all!

  2. Nice Miranda. Reminds me of the trip overseas your Mom and I took when we were about your age. Except we had Grandma Enid and Grandma Marian as tour guides.. Imagine that!
