Zanzibar eaten so you'll have to settle for Lake Malawi

So the interweb decided to eat the post from Zanzibar, typical Africa!

You'll have to make do with Malawi which is a small country beside a large lake. Still have the cast on so no snorkelling for me, anyway don't fancy bilharzia that much!

We do a village visit tomorrow and horse riding in the verdant jungle alongside the beach, should be a blast. Nice to take a break from 3 long days of driving and chill for a day.

Malawi is gorgeous, but very poor. The people are very friendly and much less hassling than the rest of east africa so far.


And in case you were wondering, Zanzibar was a lot of fun. Stone Town is scenic, decaying and amazing despite all the tourist parasites and tourists. Lots of fun on the spice plantation tour, cheesy but educational.

Cheers,

Anthony
