Christmas in Mombasa

We spent the Christmas break from December 23 to 29 in a delightful beach hotel in Mombasa. The pictures will show you the setting. Mombasa is an island and you have to take a ferry to the hotels on the south shore. The north shore is wall to wall people because it is easier to reach over a causeway. So the choice is beauty and tranquility or convenience of access.

We spent nearly three hours waiting in a line for the ferry returning (only one vessel was working of three) and almost missed our flight.
