While I was Away II
Christmas was a long time ago, we are now approaching Easter. But as I look out of the window and see the snow falling again Spring also seems a long way away.
Lookig back though, my Christmas Day was fabulous. I had somewhere between 30 and 40 guests for lunch.

Lookig back though, my Christmas Day was fabulous. I had somewhere between 30 and 40 guests for lunch.
Here are some of them:
It was bakingly hot and Zanzibar was in the middle of a 3 month power cut. My chefs Zaharani and Masoudi, however, did a sterling job getting food ready for the crowd
And they also did a great job with "Chef Service" making sure the food got distributed quickly and fairly
They needn't have worried they had made plenty
Even the Maasai -- who can be fussy guests -- were happy
And the gifts went down well...
Playing Santa I was a little concerned I hadn't brought enough pressies. Luckily I did have a fallback... As a seasoned traveller I never leave home without a supply of false moustaches and these were called into play to make up numbers. Very popular too!
