A Hint of What We See

We are still in neutral here, waiting for our residence permits to come through, Angi’s research permit to be confirmed, and school to start in two weeks. So we enjoy the food and sights of Stone Town.

Photo 1 is of boats ready to take guests to Prison Island. The name is daunting, but it is actually a nature preserve with giant tortoises and a nice beach to relax on. I have not been there yet, but as you walk through Stone Town, there are dozens of tour guides (and representatives thereof) who eagerly ask everyone who looks like a tourist if they want to go to Prison Island. Because I wear my Rancho Cucamonga Quakes hat every day, some of the guides have started to recognize us. Instead of a pressure filled plea for us to go touring, they now jokingly ask, “Today?”

Photo 2 is (I believe) the Old Dhow Harbor. I am not sure what they are unloading, nor where it comes from. But it looks cool. And busy.

Photo 3 is a shot while standing on the beach looking back towards the harbor.

Photo 4 is from the dining area of two of the restaurants (Lemongrass and Cafe Miwa) in town. I just thought it was a sight that few people have the pleasure of seeing. Angi pointed out the Red, White, and Blue color scheme to me.

    I did ask for 6-8 images. Hope you got all their names and the towns they’re from. Seriously though, lovely images.
