The next day, we head back to Tanzania. I sit by the driver. The sky is blue and the sun is high. Women walk at the edge of the roadside in brightly coloured attire. Boys stack fruit, ready to sell to passersby. Rich vegetation grows at either side of the road. A tiny chicken runs along the road for a little while, in front of us. The driver laughs and over takes it. The road is wide and doesn't appear to have any lanes established. People, cyclists, animals and vehicles move wherever they like. Carts are pulled by oxen. We overtake motorbikes. The air is scented with spices. We get the ferry back to Dar Es Salaam. A couple of days later I fly home. It has been an incredible adventure.
