After about an hour wait at the airport I boarded a plane to Diani Beach. It’s a big plane.
People are carrying big suitcases, not the duffles we carry on safari. I’ve entered a whole new world—noisy, many people. After the quiet expanse of the bush it is quite a shock to the nervous system.
It was raining when I arrived. We landed on a real runway with an airport! Not out on a dirt strip somewhere!
I’m staying at a small place. I think it’s loud but that’s just me coming from the bush I think. It’s just kids playing. They take your lunch and dinner order in the mornings and go buy your food for the day.
Here Is my room.
And here is the view from my room— the Indian Ocean!!!!
I took a much needed real shower and discovered they do laundry! Everything I own is filthy!
They put me up alone on a balcony for dinner. It’s a little odd. But I can hear the ocean!
And the waiter spoke to me in Swahili and I answered so it looks like I’ll be practicing my Swahili here.
It will be an early night tonight. I’m looking forward to tomorrow! I hope it’s not raining so I can take a walk on the beach.
My bed with its mosquito netting. I’ve been sleeping under mosquito netting everywhere.
