Island Trip
We took a fun trip out to an island just off the coast of Dar es Salaam. It was about a 15 minute boat ride, and the water was clear and shallow enough that we could see the bottom of the ocean for most of our trip. Jeff and I sat up in the very front of the boat for the trip; it gave us the best view.
The island was beautiful and the water was warm. I keep having to remember that it’s summer here! We did some snorkeling and saw some coral and fish. After swimming for a while, our group took a walk around the island. We were told that it would take about 40 minutes…2 hours later…we were back to where we started… 
But, even though it was longer than we expected, it was really neat. We saw all kind of sea life in the tide pools. We chased a few crabs. Saw some lizards and climbed around on rocks. Jeff and I collected all kinds of really cool shells. I like to have shells in my car. I love the ocean, and when I see shells in the car it reminds me of my last trip to the ocean. So, now I have my collection of car shells!
