Got a little carried away so next 3 days will be short with pictures.
We landed in Zanzibar amongst the disorganized chaos that I have learned to love about Africa. Zanzibar is an island located off of the east coast of Tanzania, 90% Muslim, 8% Christian, 2% Hindu first inhabited by fishermen from Africa then Portuguese then Iran and British all of which gives it a unique culture. It was part of the spice route and the slave trading route. We tour stone town, old slave markets, masque and churches built and destroyed by sultans and missionary's, we run across the home of phrad musada aka Freddie Mercury from the group Queen, his father was Iranian and mom Indian and he grew up in old town. The bungalows we are staying at is great not crowded good food on the beach so far lot better than the mountain.
