Tanzania, Zanzibar...and heading home
[pt]
Dudes, so like, you guys are probably aware that I grew up in California, I just don't do bad weather, so it was like totally great to get out of rainy Lushoto and hit the beach.

Just had no time recently to do blog. So in short, Zanzibar was beautiful, but full of touts especially keen to hassle women traveling together, like flies round er....really beautiful water melons. We had already bought tickets onward to Ethiopia and India but we were beginning to get a little jaded and the thought of dealing with more touts, and horrible overcrowded cities was exhausting. I also split my eye open on a low wall while ducking under a laundry line at our beach hotel. Before we spat on a tout or kicked a child we felt the need to reassess our sitch. When walking along the insanely beautiful beach one afternoon, Tracy suddenly declared "I've hit the wall....let's go home". Sounded like a plan. We had to wait 5-6 days to get a flight to Edinburgh (via Qatar) and were then able to enjoy the remainder of our time on the beach.
