Full Moon Party

Today we took an hour daladala ride to Kendwa, a nice beach area on Zanzibar. We stayed in a bungalow at Kendwa Rocks, which was very clean and picture perfect. There were lots of tourists. We overheard some tourists saying things like “I wish my room had a view” or “This food does not impress me.” We laughed because we felt pampered: we could actually take a hot shower (yes, shower, not bucket) and had complimentary breakfast!

At night was the world famous full moon party, which only happens every full moon. A lot of locals and tourists come for these parties. It was cloudy so we couldn’t see the full moon, but there was lots of dancing, food and entertainment.

Before we went to bed, Iris and I saw a bush baby, which kind of looks like a monkey/koala bear, climb around the inside of our balcony. We sat watching it until it climbed away – it was so cool!
