Arusha

A rest day to catch up on sleep and get acclimated. The hotel that was booked for us is definitely 5-star … and surrounded by its own coffee and tea plantations, vegetable gardens and greenhouses, chicken farm … and a good view of Mt Meru (when the clouds lift), the 2nd highest mountain in Tanzania. We took advantage of all the walking paths to explore the area — and were treated to a casual tour by several of the gardeners. Coffee beans go thru an amazing labor-intensive process before they ever get roasted. Jack enjoyed fancily-served drinks at both lunch and dinner: a Blue Hawaiian and a piña colada. Tomorrow the actual safari begins!Meer informatie
