Dar-es-Saalem Harbour and Ferry
Tuesday, September 6, 2005 
Having successfully made our way through the snarled traffic of downtown Dar-es-Saalem, we pass a large and evil-smelling fish market and arrive at the Magogini ferry dock in time for our truck to board the boat.
It is about ten minutes across the water to the peninsula where our new campground is located.
It is a gorgeous day on the water. The sun is hot, the colours of the boats around us are bright, and I am fascinated by the intricate and precarious-looking hairstyles of some of the women passengers on this ferry-boat. I believe there is not enough hair-spray in the world to support some of the shapes in their hair..I wonder if they used wires. I'm sad I didn't get any photographs of them.
Other foot-passengers carried large baskets full of groceries on their heads.
