Wonderful!!! Thank you for sharing your pictures and for being so good in illustrating your trips through photography. The beach in Zanzibar looks gorgeous and empty of other people - perfect!

I have to come and visit soon - well, as in next year as this year too many travels already, too little money :(

But i'll see you in Geneva before that :))))
