Day 8 part two

finally arrived in stone town ... Seeing more wild red colobus monkeys on the way. After a scene that was pure fawlty towers as the manager tried to sort rooms ... Not seeming sure which of his rooms were twins, triples or single ... A scene that took as long as a full fawlty towers episode ... We finally all had rooms ... Although one poor Tanzanian had to be turfed out of his room to make way for Mr Street ... He was last seen reclining on a sofa somewhere upstairs!
We went to the street food market outside the House of Wonder (first building in East Africa with electricity) ... Getting there through a maze of dark Streets ... Most students eating Tanzanian pizza finishing off with Nutella chocolate and banana pizza (delicious ... It is rumoured that I had more than one ... But I couldn't possibly comment) ... Others having kebabs of lobster, chicken, marlin, tuna, tiger prawns or beef ... With a drink of sugar cane for those initiated into Tanzanian culture ... Then back to the hotel ... Some suffering from too much sun earlier so wanting to get as much sleep as possible ... Our last night in a bed for 48 hours ...
At this point I have to sign off ... Just found more urchin spines in Otilies foot ... Why she left it so long to tell us I'll never know ... But it will be a new experience ... I was getting tired of the hospital I visited twice earlier today!
Until tomorrow ...
Mr L
