Zanzibar

So, we ditched the tents and headed over to Zanzibar for some nice relaxing time on the beach in the sun. We have spent the last 3 nights on the island in proper beds and our last night tonight and then it is back to camping for at least 15 days.
We visited a spice plantation, where we learnt about all the native fruits and spices grown in Zanzibar. At the end of the tour we had a tasting session and tried fruits including custard apple and jack fruit. We then saw a man free climb a coconut tree to the top which was at least 30 metres!!! Afterwards he fleshed out the coconuts and we were then able to taste the coconut milk and fruit. It was all very refreshing in the heat. The locals then weaved hats, bags and necklaces using palm leaves as a present for when we left. It was a great experience and we all learnt a lot.
When we weren't soaking up the local culture we managed to drag ourselves down to the beach for a well deserved rest. Crystal clear waters, white sandy beaches. Heaven.
Off to Malawi in a couple of days and there is talks of adopting a child just like Madonna did.

Bye for now.............

Love from all xxxx
