Mozambique

We caught a mini bus from Nelspruit and rode with the locals to Mozambique. It was a very interesting ride. The people on the bus were so helpful. They looked after us. One fellow took to the proper places, we got stamped out of South Africa, walked across the border, and then had to get our visas. One fellow who has sat with me waited with us. I thought the people on our mini bus would be impatient; however, they laughed about it all. We also had an unexpected stop when there was some great excitement as someone got on our mini bus and the others from another mini bus got very angry as the bus doesn't go unless it is full which meant that they would have to wait. It got a little tense. They blocked us in with another van, put blocks under our tires to prevent us from leaving. Then our driver and another passenger paid the other fare and we were off. The driver also took us right to our lodgings. Everyone was so helpful. We have also adopted a young lady from Austrailia who has been tagging along with us. Today we all walked about Maputo, the city where we are staying to look at the sites. Trying to get money from ATM's is an interesting experience. Tomorrow we are up early and off to Tofo right on the Indian Ocean. It's nice and hot here and we look forward to a swim in the ocean.
