After 5 cold days on the mountain we were very much looking
forward to 2 days of warmth in Zanzibar.
The island is unmistakably Muslim with near constant calls to prayer echoing
through the stone maze. Its trading history
as one of the Spice Islands makes it an interesting place to visit. Downtown Stonetown is a labyrinth of narrow alleyways
between century-old stone buildings. While
we appreciated the warmth, we quickly discovered that not even the ocean would
cool us down. The water temperature was
well above 90°. After a day and a half
in the sun, and for me, a month away from my village, we were eager to get back
to Kafule.
