I spent my last weekend in Tanzania relaxing on the island of Zanzibar! We had a wonderful time! The weather was perfect the whole time – sunny, a little breezy, highs in the 80s. The water there is ethereal blue and clear as pool water.
Friday we woke up in beautiful Kendwa. During the day we relaxed, lay on the beach, and went for walks. That evening we watched the sun set on the Indian Ocean. The colors were incredible – bright orange, luminous pink, burnt yellow, and firey red.
Saturday a large group of us – 10 volunteers – went snorkeling on an island off the east coast of the island called Mnemba. It’s known to be one of the best places to snorkel and/or scuba dive. We had a blast! We saw dolphins, eels, angel fish, zebra fish, sea urchins, and beautiful coral. We had an underwater photographer with us so we also have some great pictures!
Sunday me, Carlee, Adam and Kristina headed to Stonetown. We bargain shopped for a while and had a delicious lunch at Kidudo, a little place in the heart of Stonetown. I bought some mneche (not sure of spelling) – turquoise colored stone carved into jewelry.
It was the perfect way to spend my last weekend in Tanzania!
