The Tides of March (Or, Rather, Mangoes)

Hey team,

Tonight, M and I fly out of Zanzibar en route to Borneo (via Addis Ababa, Frankfurt, and Seoul - got to love tickets purchased with United miles). We've spent the past six days on the lovely isle of Zanzibar, and it's become clear to us that when presented with nothing but free time, clear blue skies, and stunning turquoise water, we prefer nothing more than sitting in the shade, eating fruit, reading, and playing nonstop iPhone Scrabble. In short: we are old. As a matter of fact, I discovered a cluster of three white hairs on the back of M's head ten days ago in Arusha! He looks extremely distinguished.

Anyway, we didn't spent all our time with words and books and bushbabies; we also made a few videos! Here's a glimpse of the stunning water we mentioned earlier, along with video evidence of Zanzibar's incredibly powerful, fast-moving tides:

And because there's always room for more videos of food and eating on this blog, here's a (messy) ode to mangoes:

Love,
M&S
