Picture time!!

Hey all,

back in Maputo after a 20h bus ride! As requested, I have added some pictures taken in the past week during some field trips. Sorry for the low quality/small size. It was all that this internet-windows pc combo would allow me...

Election day in Mozambique tomorrow, so I'm gearing up for a really quiet and relaxing day, to finally catch up with all the mails and phone calls I still have to return or reply to.

But for now: tchau (Portuguese/Mozambican version of 'ciao'... am i the only one who finds this odd?)


- Old abandoned church in Manica, 45km west of Chimoio (close to border with Zimbabwe)


- Railway in Manica, or what is to become the heart of the Beira-corridor (linking the harbour of Beira with Harare)


- Old rock paintings, several 1000 years old.


More pictures will follow soon, when the universe allows me to upload them.

ciao

  1. Tchau klinkt logisch eigenlijk
    - ofwel komt da van eenzelfde woord in het Indo-Europees (of een of andere fase daarna) met veranderingen tegen da Portugees en Italiaans gescheiden waren
    - ofwel hebben de Portugezen dat geleend en dan aangepast.
