Week 5: 31 October - 5 November 2006: Zanzibar Island/Tanzania/Malawi
After reluctantly leaving the beach we headed back to Stonetown where we went to a local seafood market for dinner. There we had 'Zanzibar Pizza's' which were delicious!
The sailing back to the mainland was so rough there were people being sick everywhere it was like a chain reaction. Craig was sick heading over but managed to last the journey back.
We then drove solidly for a couple of days through Tanzania, driving through Mikumi National Park, until we reached Malawi.
We spent one night beside Lake Malawi at Chitamba and another two nights beside the lake at Kande Beach. This was a great sandy beach and extremely hot, so naturally everyone risked Bilhazia (the nasty worm the eats your insides) and went swimming. Guess we'll find out in three months if we have it!!
At Kande Beach we had a 'Bad Taste Punch Night'. Everyone had drawn another person's name out of a hat and for whom had to but an ugly outfit for. We wore these outfits and drank a whole chilli-bin/eskie/cool-box full of punch that Liv had made up for us. Apparently according to Al this was drank in record time and the rest of the night was messy and a bit of a blur.
The other night there we had dinner at the local chiefs house where all of his kids sang and danced for us and even did a performance of the haka which was pretty good.
