Golfing in Africa??? 3

Ann Kelly Uncategorized

Tanzania!….on safari!…daily trips through 5 major National Parks in a topless Land Rover…saw 107 lions (yes! someone was counting!),  Cape buffaloes, leopards, elephants, and rhinos (the Big Five), as well as countless giraffes, zebras, warthogs, hippos (that sleep in the water most of the day!! etc! …the parks are also a bird-watcher’s paradise!

Now, about the golf…..there are only 14 golf courses in this large East African country…and most of them are 9 holes.  A couple of newer courses are 18 holes, the Arusha Gymkhana Golf Club and the Mt Kilimanjaro Golf and Wildlife Estate.  …both offer other amenities as well …like swimming pools, and spas!  We did pass a couple of courses on our travels, however…with the relentless sun and being so close to the equator, we were not sorry to pass up the golf!

Off to Zanzibar…now known as “the spice island” and also remembered as the largest slave market in the world from 1500’s til 1850.
