Malawi


And here the mighty lake it was impressive to see a lake that big especially if you're Swiss as our lakes aren't this big, it covers one third of the country if I remember correctly.


This little boy I met at the local school. School is free for children in Malawi and therefore a lot of kids actually attend school which is a great thing.



We went on a village tour, a guided tour and these kids kept us company while we were walking around. They were fun. The waterpumps were build by Canadians and these waterpumps are all over Malawi and provide the Malawians with fresh water so they don't have to walk too far anymore to get water.


That was our nice little beach unfortunately, we couldn't go swimming a lot because mostly it rained while we stayed at lake Malawi but anyway it was a nice beach



Kande beach is where we stayed and this dog kept us company during the rainy days :-)

Please as usual start from the bottom












And there we go with the Lion's walk...apart from the Gorillas in Uganda, I think that was one of the most impressing things I've done on my journey



Amy and Vishella, they left after Livingstone..unfortunatelly, we missed them a lot...



Chris, Becks, Mick, Els, George and Alex



Ian, Kate, Becks, Chris and Mick



Alexander and Els on the cruise




The Vic Falls were just toooo much, so we needed a Booze Cruise after that ;-)









Somehow we all got through at at the border, I was always surprised by that ;-) and we made our way to the Victoria Falls
It all started with the border crossing

Getting ready to spend the night at the Okavango Delta at a bushcamp

Standing in line at the ATM in Maun (I'm not sure anymore) it took hours just to find out that almost no one could get out money because most of the cards weren't accepted :-(






Visiting the bushmen..they're lovely people with a lot of ancient knowledge, incredible


Ghanzi, in this hut I almost spent the night..but after seeing giant ants flying around I changed my mind and stayed in my lovely tent ;-)
