In April I went on my first African vaca. We took the train from Kapiri in Central Province to Dar Es Salaam. The track and train were built and donated by the Chinese a while back. And now the train is in fair disrepair and prone to break downs at least 50% of the time. Always an adventure traveling overland in Africa.
Good ole home sweet home for 3 1/2 days
Great fresh air intake location complete with scenic views. Great way to travel for a day or two...
Hanging out in the back of the train after a tracks walk.
One of the front cars derailed leaving us stranded for 18 hrs while we waited for our rescuers
(you can see them in the distance approaching)
Took us the better part of 4 days of train travel then a short ferry ride and there you have it folks Stone Town!! Great little historic town. View of the port on our walk into town.
Old Fort of Zanzibar
Sitting on the beach celebrating our arrival to Zanzibar with a beer.
Have a couple more pics to add but think the blog maxed out with number of pictures. Will try to another round... see what we see.
