Trains, Planes And....: Ordering it from Zanzibar

We have arrived in Stone Town, Zanzibar to what is the most unbearable heat I have ever experienced in my life anywhere on the planet it's 40+ degrees and humid like you cant believe. Also, the way the streets are narrow and maze-like which doesn't allow the sea breeze in. Regardless we set out exploring what, in my opinion, is one of the most interesting cities I have been to. We tasted some amazing food, especially the nightly fish grill in the town square by the water, where all the fisherman bring their daily catch to market and cook it up for you at a great price! and returned to where I got violently ill last time, to once again try the best meal in my life.

We were in Stone Town for 2 nights, before we headed to the east side of the Island to a town called Jambiani. Its a small village located right on the ocean, it is not very touristy like some of the other areas in Zanzibar, we stayed in a hut right on the beach run by a bunch of awesome Rastas. It was an amazing beach, because the tide went out every morning and we were able to watch as all the local women farmed seaweed. When the tide came back in, in the afternoon it was perfect for swimming and windsurfing!

One of the Rastas we were staying with offered to take us on a day trip to swim with dolphins. We were both excited to go swimming with the dolphins and didn't know what to expect. We sure got the adventure of a life time. Swimming with dolphins in Africa means getting into a small tin boat and driving into the ocean until you find a school of Dolphins....once you find them you literally jump off the boat with your mask on right into the middle of the school of wild dolphins and swim with them until they swim away, then get back into the boat chase them down again and do it all over. It was an unreal and amazing experience.

After a few relaxing days in Jambiani we were looking for some action so we headed to the more popular side of the island called Kendwa. We stayed at a nice hotel right on the beach and enjoyed lots of sun, great food and lots of drinks. In Kendwa we took a day trip to a near by island called Nmeba were we went snorkeling on an incredible reef and had a nice lunch on a deserted beach. We had a great time in Zanzibar and really got to relax, as now we are heading to INDIA!!
