13/12 Jack and I were joined by our older SAF friend Claudias to town Net wasn't good enough to upload photos, god knows when I'm going to be able to do them. Lunch was a big fat Hungarian sausage hot dog.Went shopping for essentials that included toothpaste, crisps and milk. Packed our bags and left for Mulanje. Two squid for a two-and-a-half hour ride to Mulanje via Limbe and loads of other small villages. Indulged in a banana muffin sold by one of the passer...

Talked more to the Danish guy at Doogalls and turns out he has worked on game reserves, national parks and at the exact same place we went shark diving in SA called Gansbaai. He was telling us about his job characterising the animals, taking photos of fins etc, was very interesting. Turns out aswell that apparently the biggest great whites ever caught were in Cyprus measuring 6 metres in length and weighing 2 and a half tonnes! They also tagged them in SA and fou...

11-12-2010 I packed my stuff and went back to Gecko to wake Jack up. I screamed in his ear like a Lieutenant only to discover that there were other people in the dorm I woke up as well as him!

To save 500 kwacha, I decided to move down the road and sleep alone in a different lodge called Mufasa. So took my stuff early doors and disappeared. At 10am, Jack, I and the Norwegians boarded a boat out to an island for 3000 each (13 quid). The 3 crew members took us to a nearby snorkel spot where we got to see a crazy amount of fish, again all tropical, different colours, shapes and sizes. Jack figured that to hold your hand out, the fish would come and inves...

Weather was crap again and overcast so we chilled out most of the day. Jack read some book someone gave him and I just watched some Champions League highlights and swatted up about our next locations from the Lonely Planet guide. Tried to budget on our lunch which worked well again and then thankfully the sun came out a bit. Jack and I played volleyball on the beach, only to be joined by about 6 locals. My team victored 75-61 (if that's even a score). It did hel...
