Kendwa Beach, Zanzibar: Idyllic tropical beach.

Posted by daveb on June 16th, 2008

The lack of power is the talk of the island. Rastafarian’s are slinking past me on the beach complaining that “It’s dark, mon.”

It’s three o’clock in the afternoon, so maybe his sunglasses are a shade too dark.

Following a ghastly pot-holed, suspension-busting dirt track, complete with lush, tropical leaves smacking against the windscreen of our beaten-up taxi, we checked into a ‘simple’ room in Kendwa Rocks hotel — chosen over the others as they run their electricity generator later into the night (to spin the ceiling fan for essential cooling).

The beach here is beautiful and I love the handmade huts, benches, beds and hammocks that dot the coastline. Here are a few pictures to make you go green with envy!

Hey, guys!

Zanzibar looks awesome! Am truly jealous!

Sounds like you both had great birthdays – sorry we missed them (train strike here in Cork, like…;-).

Keep blogging,

Beno & Aileen

I think the admin of this web site is really working hard in favor of his site, as here every information is quality
based stuff.

First off I would like to say wonderful blog!

I had a quick question which I’d like to ask if you don’t mind.
I was interested to find out how you center yourself and clear your head prior to writing.
I’ve had trouble clearing my mind in getting my ideas out.
I do enjoy writing however it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes
are generally lost just trying to figure out how
to begin. Any recommendations or tips? Thank you!
