Zanzibar

As you can see, Kendwa beach in Zanzibar is nzuri sana; very beautiful. The sands are pure white, the water a glorious blue and completely clear and warm. Ah, it was paradise. We went snorkeling for $10 each and saw numerous interesting sea life and rode in a dhow. Stonetown in Zanzibar was also very interesting and we had fun wandering around the narrow streets, getting completely turned around. We also ate the unique and tasty Zanzibar Pizza at the Forodhani Gardens: pastry filled with ground meat, spices, veggies, and egg then fried=yum. Overall, a vacation that was well worth the 10 hour bus ride plus 3 hour ferry ride each way. (I think...) I would like to write more about it, but this time pictures will have to suffice. (Check my flicker slideshow on your left for more Zanzibari pics.)

Been at Kendwa Beach in April and it was great. Wonder if you had dinner or lunch at the restaurant located right on the beach. Exactly 5 steps and you are in the ocean. Feet in the sand..Going there again in Feb 2007
