Africa 2009


We were lucky enough to take another trip to Africa (our 3rd in two years!), while Ava stayed with Grammy and Grandpa. This time, we went to Morocco, Egypt, Tanzania and Zanzibar. It was an amazing, tiring, relaxing, productive trip. Here are a sampling of our photos. Enjoy!

Some of the few pictures we took in Casablanca



Around Marrakech













Amine's parent's houses in Morocco - they were so nice to host us and were WONDERFUL hosts at that!

Dinner at Amine's house - one of the 5 course meals we had...there were many and they were delicious!







Pretty obvious where we are








A 5000 year-old boat they found buried near the Pyramids - isn't it crazy it is still in such good shape!


Mosques in Cairo






House in Dar es Salaam (in Wyaninamala) - we are the only mzungos in town





In our neighborhood




Around Dar






Day trip to Bongoyo island off Dar



Where did Gary go?
He's back





The "white" area of Dar es Salaam - could be anywhere!
