A day on the beach beckons, if the bags turn up at 4pm as promised. The Dancer has a tracker in hers so we know exactly where it is, which is at Arusha Airport.

We got a tuk tuk up to Paje ( pronounced Par jay) for some shopping, a few things purchased. $20usd was the cost per tuk tuk x 2. Feels like we’re back in Thailand buzzing and bouncing up the street. A few items are purchased on the assumption the bags might not come and a few other things are purchased in the local market area for other reasons.

Its a chill day, The Navigator gets a massage, the Cowboy gets a haircut, I go for a walk up the beach, read a bit in the chair in front of our room over looking the Indian Ocean looking east.

Dinner at 7, when we finish the two without bags go to reception and find that their bags have arrived. So much for 4pm, but, 9.30pm is ok, at least they’re here.

Tomorrow morning is chill time, tomorrow 1.30 we’re going to Stone Town to check it out.

Its nice to slow down, no dust, no bouncing around in the back of  a Landcruise Troopy, no 5.30am starts.
