Zanzibar

Zanzibar is an island off the coast of Tanzania with beautiful white sand beaches.

The beach has nice chairs. You could borrow mats from the hotel to put on them which made them really comfy.

image

The white sand continued way back from the beach with lots of shady palm trees.

image

This is our hotel room there are four rooms in there. The top floor under the peak is our room.

Like everywhere in Africa the sun never seems to set properly, it just dissolves into the haze on the horizon, even when it is not cloudy.

image

These are their traditional boats.

image

They were used to transport spices all over the Indian ocean, but they had to follow the seasonal winds and unusual weather would leave the traders stranded.

image

The beach had a lot of little ghost crabs.

image

There were also some evil looking birds.

image

Possibly cannibalistic evil birds. Or maybe he just wound up with one of his own feathers in his mouth.

image

There were lots of pretty shells on the beach.

image

Which you probably shouldn’t touch.

image

It was a very nice break.
