Motorcycle around zanzabar

This island has turns and twists. Before you know it you started south and end up east and then managed to take yourself right back to where you started. They say you are never truly lost on Zanzibar. I must concur. Drove down dirt tracks, roads that went to know where, and still I found my way back. Getting lost is part of the fun but here on Zanzibar you always end up in stone town.

No it not a guy starting his boat on fire. They cover the hull on this toxic mixture and then use fire to seal the hull.

The more rural I would drive the more the children would wave and smile. The one village had theses low thatched huts on the shoreline. Not even high enough to stand in. Can assume they are the homes of the fisherman. Zanzibar has been a very hospitable island. The people here are very kind.


If you look close the outrigger canoe is held together with red twine.


They look like they would sink the moment water touches the hull but actually they are quite sea worthy and are used daily for fishing. Can you see the post on the side of the boat? It is essentially in dry dock.

Location:Zanzabar island Tanzania.
