Tanzania Hop Stop
Today we have been familiarising ourselves with the alien environment. We arrived at the airport on time, greeted with our visa forms we collected luggage and headed out into the sunshine for our first sips of the hot humid air.
Today feels like the longest day of my life. I havcent slept a night here but it already feels like at least a week of busy activities.
The ride to the YMCA was barable, just about. All piled in to a mini bus sitting on each others map and just hoping that the next turn would lead us to our destination.
After we arrived and checked in we dragged our bags up the stairs to our room.
We then left for lunch after coating ourselves in layers of sun lotion and speaking to a local tour group which arranges trips in the south of tanzania.
Lunch was a short walk away and was much needed. It was a buffet for 6'000 tanzanian shillings. which is about 3pounds. it included coconut rice salad, beans and fruit for desert.
After lunch we headed to the beach to swim at the golden tulip hotel. It was beautiful, blue views for miles.
And now here i am sat at the YMCA typing away on the slowest internet connection known to man.
Until tomorrow maybe.... tea is calling.
xxxxx much love
