Chilling in Stone Town

After a hectic run and quite the rush at the harbor, shiedling off the wanna-be offers for the ferry (took us 20US$/person and 3.5hours to cross), we were on our way to famous and fabulous Zanzibar, that perfect sounding place for honey mooners and place to relax after the hardships of Africa. It is funny, neither me nor Thomas would have thought we would have been going to Zanzibar in the near future... 
 
At our arrival on the island of Zanzibar, we got into Stone Town, an old, very arab like city, with narrow streets and alleys. There we met up with Mick and Shirley, who introduced us to two of her friends, Julia and Shirley 2, both living in New York, with whom we hung out the next couple of days...


Giant tortoise at Prison Island, this one over a hundred years old (and then she gets two Beglians sitting on her ;-) Kidding, she wouldn't even notice it...

The sunset from Stone Town, a classic
