The day after our safari, we just hang out in Arusha doing the usual “hang-out day” kind of stuff – checking the Internet, watching a few movies, wandering around the city, etc.
We catch a bus back to Dar es Salaam the next morning and for some reason, we’re not dreading the 10-hour ride this time. Maybe it’s because it’s our last bus ride in Africa… hopefully.
I actually both start and finish a book on the ride – the same one that Eric started and finished on the same bus getting here. The book is “Like Water For Chocolate” and it’s a perfect read for such occasions as long bus rides.
Once in Dar we check in to the Econolodge, where we stayed previously, and then immediately head out to a BBQ place on the corner for dinner. We’re starving and BBQ is a great way to end a day.
We decide to spend one more day in Dar es Salaam before sailing to Zanzibar – our final African destination – so we can mail a few postcards, complete some souvenir shopping and make a return visit to our friendly, neighbourhood BBQ joint…
Mmmmmm!
