We flew Emirate Air to Dubai and then to Dar es Salaam, which I would recommend to anyone. The service & food (and limitless alcohol! A surprise for a Muslin airline) was wonderful, fine restaurant quality, and the seats so much bigger than on American airlines.<br /><br />We sent most of our time in Ruaha, staying in a safari lodge & then visiting Iringa. After we left Dar es Salaam, we didn't encounter any English-speaking people outside our group, and only once did we see another Safari vehicle. We had Masai guards stationed in the camp because there were leopards roaming in the camp (we heard them cough right outside our banda)<br /><br />We finished up the trip with a relaxing stay at a resort on the Indian Ocean in Zanzibar, so we weren't exhausted when we got back.<br /><br />It's a trip worth taking, as I'm sure you'll agree once you get back to normal!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-993649290245605005.post-15230351606250959802013-09-06T15:26:30.403-04:002013-09-06T15:26:30.403-04:00Welcome back - can't wait to hear about your s...Welcome back - can't wait to hear about your safari adventure!Shari Randallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16425493627354028820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-993649290245605005.post-85118732390388723122013-09-06T10:25:13.009-04:002013-09-06T10:25:13.009-04:00Welcome back, Warren!

Air travel especially has become incredibly miserable--shrinking seats and leg room and service during flight, the struggle with aggressive travelers to get seated or off the plane, invasive security procedures with long lines, and the airports which have become small cities with your next flight inevitably at the other end of the city.<br /><br />We can drive incredible distances for days, and I'll need some time to rest afterward, but never as much time as even a fairly short flight requires. No wonder you were discombobulated!Linda Rodriguezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11913741596693442469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-993649290245605005.post-16238406347201412902013-09-06T10:19:05.893-04:002013-09-06T10:19:05.893-04:00We love traveling -- slowly -- by auto on blue hig...We love traveling -- slowly -- by auto on blue highways whenever possible.

As for the screaming-baby thing, it was only Janet Evanovich's FOUR TO SCORE that saved the shrieking child behind me on an airplane from death by me. Which means she probably saved my life, too.Alice Duncanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04617808704864502171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-993649290245605005.post-69068279534119237952013-09-06T09:56:45.969-04:002013-09-06T09:56:45.969-04:00Travel is wonderful but also taxing.
