TAZARA train 22 Ground That Was Not Moving

 By the time we got to Dar es Salaam, on the Tanzanian coast, I was ready for something new.

Departing the Tazara train at the Dar es Salaam train station, after a 16-hour delay in total.

Our journey was supposed to take three days and two nights. But because of so many delays, it ended up taking four days and three nights. As I stepped off the train at about 9 a.m. and got lost in the enormous crowd, it felt weird to be back on ground that was not moving.
