Tuesday morning was spent exploring the spice market in Stone Town, followed by the general market.  Midday we bused up to Nungwi, which is a small resort area overlooking stunning beaches.

On Wednesday I had my hair braided by a local woman, then after lunch a few of us went to have henna tattoo's painted.  Rest of the time was very lazy on the beach, or enjoying the local cocktails.

Re: Love the braids!
Hi,

The braids took 1 hour 45 minutes to do, and the woman was amazing hence they turned out well.

In addition I had a Masai warrior henna tattoo on my ankle, so between the two I attracted a lot of comments from the locals who just loved it.
