My three travel companions have now returned to the states so I returned to the beach in Bwejuu, on the island’s east coast. Here I’ve been swimming in the Indian ocean, eaten my share of fresh tropical fruits (mangos!), watched the Maasai security guards play soccer on the white sand beach in their bright red robes, finished three books, done yoga on my porch, watched local men ride by on rusty bicycles and noisy scooters, relaxed on the white sands beach in the cooling wind, and gotten a respectable tan!
