After our safari, we returned to Moshi for a few days of much-needed sitting still. We had been in Tanzania for several weeks at this point, and we had yet to spend more than one night in the same place. From our last night in Johannesburg, South Africa through Zanzibar, Mt. Kilimanjaro, and our safari, we had spent 21 nights in 21 different hotels! That is certainly a record for our trip and as you might imagine, it can get quite exhausting after awhile.
Yes, we got to spend some of these nights in absolute luxury but some others were spent in cold tents on the sides of big mountains. A couple nights in Moshi catching up on email, doing laundry and sleeping in are just what the doctor ordered!

3 nights in 1 bed?! Wooohoooo!
