Moonshine Hotel - Uroa and off to Kendwa

In the morning we have a cup of coffee looking at the ocean and them go next door to the Moonshine Hotel. It is a beautiful spot directly at the beach with a nice pool. We have pizza and chat to the owner, who is from Sweden and her husband's brother from Italy. They are super cool and tell me a bit about the struggles and merits of having a hotel in Zanzibar.  The place is beautiful with stunning views. They have cute dogs as well. After a swim in the pool and some chill time watching the water turning into different shades of azure blue and turquoise we make our way back to Baby Bush Lodge in Kiwengwa, our home base, to get some fresh clothes. High five to Juma, the coolest guy on the whole island, manager of the Baby Bush Lodge, and we are off to the Full Moon Party in Kendwa Rocks Resort in the north. We planned to stay for one night and eventually ended up on a full-blown three day hang-out party with awesome peeps. That place can suck you in.
Even though it is rain season we have sunshine all the time. One of those occasions that changes you, because you see things and chat to people that you know where there, but you have never encountered them before.
But that is a story of its own.

Flying into Dar Es Salaam and arriving in Zanzibar

Flying South African Airlines was a real treat. Plane almost empty, amazing food, watched the movie Joy. And the view at landing was just stunning.

The immigration at the airport on the other hand was hectic. Bring cash and time.
Almost missed my connection flight with Precision Air. That airline is funny. The whole airport is like a computer hardware history museum. Everything was slo-mo, so in the end the lady at the check-in advised me: 'Now run'. I did in lekker humid 30 degrees. Once in the airplane I could finally relax and look forward to this amazing island that I am now on.
Everything here is so completely different from all I have seen before. The nature is amazing and people are so well spirited. The mini taxis here are called Dala Dala which I think is a very cool name.

Gonna let my first impressions sink in over a great-tasting Safari beer at the Baby Bush Lodge chilling with my friends on mattresses in this beautiful hut-bar overlooking the ocean listening to Reggae.
Life is good!

Even though I enjoy my iPhone camera, I am already flipping excited to take the big baby for a spin tomorrow. Enjoy your evening and stay tuned.
