Dhow on the Dar |
Well, yes, catching up on some sleep, for sure, after ten days or more of up to 750km per day....
But also out and about in Zanzibar.... a much more multi-ethnic place after Southern Africa, and much more Muslim as well, about 90%. A mix of African, Indian, Portuguese, Arab, mixin' and fixin' in Swahili, much more than the ubiquitous English of the South.
So, here's some photos of Dar and Zanzibar, an Island about 40nm north of Dar. Beautiful beaches, pure hard white sand, protected by a reef to the East. And, not to forget — birthplace of
Freddie Mercury. Which you note all around town…
