I first became aware of Dar Williams when I bought the Joan Baez CD, Gone from Danger. Dar Williams had written a number of tracks on the CD and also provided backing vocals on some. I was very impressed by this singer / songwriter and promised myself I would seek out more of her work. It took me some time but I finally came across this CD, "The Green World".
The CD is the fourth of Dar Williams solo albums released in 2002 by Razor & Tie and I was not disappointed. The CD is enjoyable for many reasons. Each of the songs is a delight to listen to instilled with the folk-song storytelling quality. Dar's voice is pleasing and clear; at times wistful, at others mournful, sometimes childlike and sometimes whimsical. The lyrics are amazing and original; they are catchy yet the underlying sentiment is often profound; somewhat ambiguous ...
a place to stay in Dar es salaam can be difficult. It is not that there is a lack of hotels, it is just that they always seem to be full - this applies to the cheap, expensive and the in-between. So, whatever you
do, do not pass up a vacant room because you do not like the curtains. Take the room and look for something better later.
There is now a new bus station in Dar es salaam for all bus lines. It is situated a little way out of town, in case you want to travel to other parts of the country by Bus, as there is scarce train service. There are regular bus services to Mt.Kilimanjaro(Arusha) or to Lake Victoria
(Mwanza) and also ferry services to the Islands of Pemba and Zanzibar. I made a point of visiting Lushoto (on the road between Moshi and Tanga - a breathtaking little town) and from there went on a three day trek in the Usambara ...
Advantages: Central location, clean Disadvantages: Food, rooms
We stayed at this hotel in London a little over a month ago now for two nights, we chose this hotel mainly because of the central location and because it was only a ten minuite walk from the show we had booked to go too.
Check in was very quick - About ten minuites and the staff at the reception seemed very friendly.
My first thoughts on the hotel was that it looked really clean and that it was nicely decorated and it looked modern.
I was a little dissapointed with our room as it was very small and basic, our room had a double bed, tea and coffee making facilities, a tv with satellite and a small, basic en suite bathroom with a shower.
The views from our room very very poor - A block of offices which made our room dark as they were so close.
The hotel has two bars and two resturaunts, the bars were again nicely decorated ...
