Posts From Mozambique

Another day at sea. In todays single photo you might be able makeout the slightly darker line on the horizon, that is the land of East Africa.

This morning at around 7:00 we docked in the city of Maputo, in the country of Mozambique. The first impressions of the city were formed by the dock area, the array of docked fishing boats in image number 1, the Maputo-Katembe Bridge and its grounded companion ship the Volopas shown in the 3rd and 2nd last photo and the Mozambique Naval Ship in the last photo which was also in the process of docking when we arrived. So what was that impression? It was of a modern city that was somewhat run-down. The city tour that occupied most of our day expanded on that impression.
