New Year on a beautiful island
Travel Location: Zanzibar,Tanzania
I have to admit I was completely spoilt rotten by my lovely boyfriend, taking me to such a gorgeous place. The views over the Indian Ocean were absolutely the best I have ever seen. I really regret not taking photos, as the days I decided to go out with my camera it suddenly became overcast. However, when the sun shone, the sea was picture perfect with all shades of turquoise around the coral, edged with the finest white sand I’ve ever felt. As the beach was private and part of the hotel resort, much of it was untouched, so like a couple of kids ,Mark loved the coral rock pools and I loved picking up pretty shells!
For New Years Eve we were treated to live music while we ate, followed by a disco at the jetty bar. Don’t remember too much of the latter part of the evening but I do remember some pretty mad dancing! I had a lot of lost ‘drinking time’ to make up for after all my poorlyness! All in all it was a great night.
Happy new year!
Unfortunately that was it for me. I’d had almost a week of feeling great. No poorly tummy, no more pills and I even managed to have a few work outs at the gym. I thought I was just hungover on New Years day but we both turned out to have food poisoning or something for the last few days. It was a pity, especially as it meant we couldn’t enjoy the lovely pool and delicious food on offer, but at least we had a nice room. We certainly watched a lot of films in Zanzibar! Should be enough to keep me going in my tv-free life back at Mili for a while.
