a few days in dar

Dar el Salaam is the capital.  any charm it once had wasn't presenting itself on my visit there.  perhaps it is like Bangkok and as i come to know it i will start to love going there.

there are basically two parts of the city.  the peninsula and everything else.  the peninsula is the western habitat and they seem to rarely leave it.  it was also raining nonstop which makes the traffic which is already bad even worse.

I spent something like 15 hours in airports and airplanes and and taxis to and from the airport for 48 hours on the ground.  what a miserable trip.  there are good restaurants so i always wanted to stop somewhere good but i was with my boss who like to stick with the $7UD per diem for meals so enough said there.
