Zanzibar - ctd

Posted: 2008-10-12 05:25 PM   
Hi, I was trying to be gentle with my reply. I was not disappointed with Zanzibar, and I had plenty of great time there with the locals, and that was why I stayed an extra day, but there are many more beautiful islands in the world.

I loved the medina, but there were indeed better ones, too. LIke the one in Fes and Meknes in Morocco. But the nightlife in Nungwi was superb, as were the huts on the beach converted into accommodation - a little Bohemian, I know, but with excellent atmosphere.

I went to Madagascar about 8 months before the clash of presidents. I heard that there were great changes since the new president took office, but I could not shift my priorities to go there again rather than discover a new place.

Best regards
Krys

Zanzibar

Hi,

I loved Zanzibar. I would not consider it to be the most beautiful, though. There are so many lovely islands on our planet with much more diverse landscape. My favourite island is Madagascar. But I have never been to New Zealand and from what I see on the pictures, the South Island might actually be the closest to perfection. :)

And I loved Cuba as well! If I were to single out another island it might be Tenerife, actually.

Kindest regards
Krys

Travel writing

Hi, I hope you had a good holiday.

I have not yet decided what to do with the groups I moderating. There are not that many active members yet to warrant much group activity. I have created two groups (Sailing, Diving) to channel discussions into a more focused fora, but I am not sure there are that many members with those interests.

Kindest regards
Krys

Yes indeed the bog and outcrop rock is very similar to the West of Ireland mountains. I had not made the connection before

Really? I don't know that ria is a dutch name. Well i was quite shocked when i read it. Maybe because there was a connection between indonesia & dutch in the past. I believe there are some indonesian people in dutch.

[quote]I agree about Lisbon and, on the whole about the Algarve, although I rather liked Tavira and would suggest anybody forced to use Faro airport should spend the night in Tavira rather than Faro.[unquote]

Fully with you on that tip David. We were there at Tavira too and I shall update with pics on that fishing village. From Tavira, with a rented car... one can cruise easily along the highway into Spain and back to the other tip of Portugal in under a jiffy like 2-over hours, we luv the Algarve and recommend others to do try out that stretch.

But here I am, wanting to say and send my greetings from a little up by the sea front from the Hague.

My amazement at the many places you were at and still going strong with your the energy you have... I am going to read which I am certain, will be a thrill to admire your coverage on places that I can understand better and become prepared for our forthcoming journeys after your "voetsporen".

Groetjes vanuit Den Haag.

Mostar

Marianne,

It really was an interesting place to visit. I only explored the old town with its cobble streets, old stone houses and rebuilt mosques and was fascinated by that. But the town has grown and if I had time would have liked to see a little more although it wasn't as picturesque.

The only thing I didn't mention was that there were a lot of beggars just outside the old town, which was a little scary.
