Cross in Church, Zanzibar

Looks like any old cross, right?

Yes, except the sign at the bottom of this cross reads:

This crucifix made from the wood of the tree under which Dr. Livingstone died at Chitambo village Ilala, Zambia in 1873, and under which his heart buried.

Presented to the Diocese of Zanzibar by H.L. In 1901.”

This cross is located in the Anglican Church in Stone Town, famous for having been built on the site of Zanzibar’s former slave market. #HistoryBooksComeToLife

Whipping Post circle and Alter, Slave Market, Zanzibar

On the site of Zanzibar’s former slave market now stands Christ Church, an Anglican Cathedral built in celebration of the legal end of slavery in Zanzibar.

The altar of the cathedral stands on the location of the former slave market’s whipping post, where the enslaved were tied and whipped to see how strong they were.

Those who did not cry or faint sold for a higher price.

The white marble circle on the floor in front of the altar marks the exact location of the tree that was used as a whipping post.

The white(ish) circle is surrounded by red marble to symbolise the blood of the enslaved.

Birthday Cake 2018 from Shoppers Plaza Kahawa Café

Birthday cake this year was from @ShoppersKahawaCafe. Not only was this chocolate hazelnut cake pretty but also very delicious. I was impressed, @ShoppersKahawaCafe!

But note: I started to cut the cake before blowing out the candles. Hahaha…age is slowly but surely creeping up on me!?

Last year, at least, I had the presence of mind to blow out the candles first. I’ve got the pictures to prove it!
