Here are some photos I took as we drove from Blantyre in the south to the capital of Lilongwe in the central region of the country.

| Beautiful countryside just outside Blantyre |
 |
| Doing business in a village along the road. |
 |
| Kids walking home from school. Reminds me of Samoa. Here they yell "Mzungu" and wave. Same as palagi. |
 |
| Flowers at the small restaurant where we had tasty grilled chicken. |
 |
| House along the road. |
 |
| More countryside. If you look closely in the lower left corner you'll see the thatched roof of a traditional house. |

| A village with traditional houses. |

| I need to practice carrying things this way. It would improve my posture greatly. |
 |
| Selling beans on the highway. |
 |
| Selling produce in the market in ...Mozambique. On one side of the road is Malawi, on the other is Mozambique. |
 |
| Dare you to say this isn't absolutely beautiful. It is the end of the rainy season, heading into winter, which is why everything is so lush and green. |

ReplyDeleteOkay, I finally have time to do this.
ReplyDeleteAlthough I have not posted a comment since before you left Samoa, I have been following your moves, experiences and observations.
I recently completed MST here in Macedonia and as we are now looking forward, rather than tallying our time & experiences here, I see our COS conference on the horizon. It gives me all kinds of day dream material, as you may well remember.
It appears that you found a great unexpected path to follow and your experiences give me hope for the future after I become a RPCV.
Best wishes to you for continued good experiences.
Keep posting!
