Nov 3rd, 2009 Back in Dar, 'The last days'

AHHHHH, Back in dar, no more travelling within Tanzania, no more long busses or ferries, just eating and sleeping. :)

Zanzibar was amazing. The beaches, the self learning, the people that I met, and the history of the towns. So much to see and I am content with what I did get to. I'm quite tired while I write this, need to eat some lovely food, maybe some ugali and beef. Yeah that would be very nice actually.

Met some wonderful people in Zanzibar; Mischa, Findley, Karin, Sarah, and of course Nat again plus his friends.

Nat texts me while I was in the north of the island and says that he is coming over the next day with some friends and that he is exicted to meet up. As was I too. Nat and I had a great time in Dar together, going to some beaches and talking about love and life. So the next day I head back to Stonetown, head to the port and wait for him to come off the ferry. Waiting and waiting, I see this huge group of people, white people, on the other side of the fence going through immigration. Don't know why it is taking them so long tho. Waiting and then finally. 14 travellers come out of the gate all together. I thinking to myself are these Nat's friends? 14 people!! The guys talks with people more then I do! I then spot Nat in a big straw hatand the brightest orange shirt that is competing with the sun. I catch up to this herd of human beings stampeding through the city and trying to get away from the touts at the port. I start calling out Nat's name. He turns back in the way which at the moment looked so magical if we could slow down time and have a camera shot of just his head. The big sunglasses are there soon followed by a big smile right underneath them. We spent the next two days together, myself practically leading the group around the town but also giving us a chance to sneak off and watch the sunset. So romantic, wished Brenden could have been there. ;)

So great memories here in Tanzania, I hope to sit and write down some of my thoughts tonight and have 1 final entry for Tanzania tomorrow evening.

Big smiles
