Today we came to Zanzibar to the Diocese of Zanzibar. First of all, it was overwhelming as we arrived at the port to board the ferry. Porters banging on the window demanding an opportunity to carry our baggage. Then into the terminal and finally with many people boarding the ferry, people yelling and pushing. Finally Geoffrey found us quiet seats for the 2.5 hour ride. At the port at Zanzibar, we were all ordered off the ship and then our luggage was sent down the plank when the boat was empty. We had to produce our yellow fever documents to the port authority before leaving the area. The Archbishop (retired) had a vehicle waiting for us with the Development Officer and the Mother's union worker. We went to the hotel for freshening before heading for an audience with the Archbishop. A tour of the Cathedral compound followed.
