Kigoma - Tanzania

8/8/2008

Jacobsen's Beach. Marilise, Morne's wife, relaxes on the beach. This picture was taken on a previous Tanzanian trip with a visit to Kigomo.

The 30 km done today felt like a walk in the park. The water was rough, but knowing we only had a relative short distance to go, it felt easy. We are at Jacobsen's beach where we will be staying in rooms until Monday morning. It is an undisturbed site just south of Kigoma Bay.

We already had a shower and will be off to a "restaurant" for goat meat and pap. A few years ago Louis was responsible for the development of the beer market in western Tanzania . He knows the Kigoma area well and all the beer distributors.

The two days of rest is welcome before we take on the last stretch of our expedition. Brent arrives on Sunday from Kenia where he runs his business - Sand Dolar Kayaking Expeditions.

Hi there Adventurers!

I am following your exciting journey just about every day and will be listening to your radio interview today, 9 Aug. I did catch the last few minutes of your previous interview. Stèfan tells everyone Uncle Mornè is fighting crocodiles just like his dad does in the local Stellenbosch dam at De Zalze!
