Superbowl Sunday Update

Trying to upload my Tanzania pictures, but not having much luck. I can't complain, the internet here is way better than it was in Ethiopia. I have been at the beach north of Pangani, and am now heading towards the islands (Zanzibar and Pemba).. if god wills the boat to arrive. I actually really like the town I am in (Tanga [pictured]) it is a pretty big city (for Tanzania) but it is really laid back, maybe because it is so hot, maybe it's because there aren't too many wazungu around.


I have been reading in the shade with the nice ocean breeze, etc.. I still have plenty of good books from my parents resupply that I don't have to worry about using up my good ones (that is a real thought I have sometimes, the bookexchanges are slimpickings around here) and I am building up my good karma by leaving good books for other people, so it should all work out.


Visited some caves today that are supposedly the biggest limestone cave network anywhere in the world, they were pretty impressive (see picture). I wasn't even planning on stopping here, I have been doing the major tourist highlights (Serengeti, Kilimanjaro), after Zanzibar it will definitely be more off the beaten track, and I am looking forward to that. Hopefully Indian food will remain prevalent..
