After another horrendous day on the truck and being sick as ever, we jumped into jeeps and headed into the famous Serengeti National Park.On the way we drove past the Ngorongoro Crater which we will visit in a few days, it was one of the most spectacular sites I have ever seen. We drove to the gates of the national park, right through the wildebeest migration, which was an amazing site to see.We were literally surrounded by them as far as the eye could see, al...

Finally, off to Zanzibar!One of the places on my trip I have been looking forward to the most.We left camp at 830am and got in our transfer to the port to get the ferry.Once we got there and out into the madness of Dar es Salaam, we had to wait an hour to board.The ferry was much better than I expected and air conditioned!There is basically no air conditioning anywhere in Africa, so anyone who happens to be reading this and thinking about coming here, be prepar...
