Stone Town in Zanzibar seems 1 part Havana, 1 part Marrakech, and 1 part Caribbean island, equalling one crazy place to go for a run.While the streets in Stone Town itself are pretty quiet(other than the hawkers trying to get your attention), if you want to get any distance you need to venture a little further. This means hitting the roads, filled with people, animals, and just about every wheeled vehicle imaginable. I was eager to get back before dark(recommended by everyone we spoke with), so after a few close calls with some of the larger cars and trucks, I made it back into the more quiet area in time for sunset.
