Like so many trips you always seem to cram a lot in towards the end. While we have tried our best not to do this, if we are honest with ourselves, we have done a lot in the past 2 weeks. This has included a night at Bhunga neck just south of Kosi bay (SA … More Almost the home stretch

Look away now if you have no interest in diving :-DWell we moved on from Tofo to Guinjata bay – all of about 15km down the coast and guess what, we continued to dive. From there we eventually made it down to Porta do Ouro (about 10km North of the SA border), thankfully we also … More The deep deep blue

Time has really flown since the last post and I have to admit the silence has had nothing to do with a lack of Internet access. We have been distracted by the beautiful coastline and warm waters of the Indian Ocean.  We arrived in Mozambique crossing into the country just SE of lake Malawi, from … More Sun, sea and salty (h)air

The ride over on a boat was interesting with some unwelcome wildlife additions to our cabin (rat and a huge spider). Though we are now relaxing back and enjoying island life for a bit.     Might go for a … More Another tough day in Africa

New Years was spent on the shores of lake Malawi, fresh fish, sunshine and swimming being the order of the day!  Once again we have been taken aback by how different neighbouring countries can be. We crossed the international border between Zambia and Malawi and suddenly there was a noticeable difference, mainly having gone from … More Warm heart of Africa
