We returned Sunday from a great weekend in the northern part of Tanzania near the Kenya border and had an excellent half marathon experience. We arrived at Kilimanjaro International Airport, which is pretty much halfway between Arusha and Moshi, on Friday afternoon.
You can see how "international" the airport is as people are just roaming the tarmac (including Lucy and our running friend Diana).
We took the Precision Air shuttle bus to Arusha for supper at a boutique hotel called The Bay Leaf that had been recommended to us by Matt and Nena (our housemates in Rwanda).
I had Kenyan beef and Lucy had a stuffed chicken dish. Both were pretty good and the atmosphere was very pleasant, but it did not surpass Brew Bistro in Nairobi as the best restaurant we have been to East Africa. We ate at Brew Bistro twice when we were in town over Christmas and would highly recommend it to anyone.
