A naughty treat

Mama Ju and I are going to Zanzibar next week. NEXT WEEK!!!!! Cannot believe it is upon us already.

As if that's not enough of something to look forward to, we also decided it was high time to escape 'the compound' for a bit, and booked ourselves in to a hotel in town to wind down and live on our own schedule for 24 short, sweet hours.

Annemart, Julie and I spent the evening watching the soccer world cup qualifier between Russia and Germany in the Greek Club (I know, I can hear you thinking 'wow, that's SO african!!). I had two cocktails and a cider and was well and truly merry. After a diet of unprocessed food and no alcohol my tolerance for alcohol ain't what it used to be!!! Luckily, the hotel was right across the road and Annemart dropped us there in her taxi on her way home.

This morning we had a delicious breakfast and a leisurely stroll from the hotel into town...it was just the treat I needed (well, WANTED!!).
