The rest of the Zanzibar trip has been amazing. After a few days in stone town, we headed north to the beaches of Kendwa. There's not much in Kendwa apart from the picturesque white sands and a couple of beach resorts, and whilst we were unsuccessful in getting a room at our first choice hostel, we soon found a room at the Kendwa Beach Villas (right on the beach).Beach life in the north of Zanzibar are just as you'd imagine it - white sand, turquoise water and blazing sunshine. There are a lot of tourists in Kendwa, but everything is pretty laid back and the only slight downside is that all the places to eat/drink on the beach have hiked up tourist prices. We also noticed that they have a soft spot for Shania Twain and Celine Dion - we heard it everywhere we went. Also, almost everyone thinks we're German.
There's not much more to write about Kendwa, seeing as we spent most of our time there lying on the beach or swimming. Some photos will no doubt get the general vibe across.
We are heading to Moshi tomorrow, in northern Tanzania. You can see Mount Kilimanjaro from the small town we're heading to (Machame) and they grow Arabica coffee beans there. Will hopefully update when we get there (after another 9 hour coach trip)....
