Other things I saw today

Some doors of Stone Town.


All carved wood...many are mahogany.





I loved Freddie. The locals didn't see this muzumbu tearing up in the street. Muzumbu is Swahili for "white guy." I think it really means "stranger" but the tone of voice imparts clearly the other meaning. Freddie was born here in Zanzibar; I loved him and miss him. I happened on his former home. His death was part of the AIDS horror story.


A praying mantis GIVING BIRTH!!! The baby is cream colored. I could see her head turn and watch me.
