Mumbo Jumbo!

Zanzibar!
In the name of science, Caleb and I took a bunch of students to Zanzibar where the students, and I, completed our Open Water Dive Certificates. This has been on my bucketlist since the movie came out, so I was really stoked to have the opportunity to go.  
Zanzibar is so different from deep dark West Africa... it is just as lush and green, but there doesn't seem to be the feel of oppression and heaviness that I sense in Nigeria. The beaches were stunning, and the food was delish!
P.S They actually say 'Hakuna Matata' here.
P.S.S They also say 'Mumbo!' and you respond 'Jumbo!' - everywhere you go it's just 'mumbo jumbo!'





Terrible photo - but this is the kids dancing with the Masais.
