Day 19, Stonetown again.

Get up, pack, get a shuttle, shuttle takes forever.  In Swahili, the word for "slowly" is "pole pole."  Pronounced po-lay.  Pole pole is how everything is done.  It is the attitude, the time, everything.  Not that they're relaxed, it's just that Zanzibaris are terrible at getting things down.  Back to Stonetown finally.  No ATMs work anywhere, so I finally had to get a taxi to a different part of town.  Eventually settle back in, go back to Zanzibar coffee house, see Stonetown's mazes, back to the fish market for dinner.  Made friends with some Germans studying at the University of Dar.
