Road trip and Catembe

We took an overnight bus from Jo'berg to Maputo in Mozambique...the trip was about 10 hours of riding and an hour of customs/immigration lines which all went really smoothly. When we arrived in Maputo the wind was high and the sand was blowing (Maputo is on the coast of the Indian Ocean) so we didn't have time to explore the city as we had to head to the ferry but we will be in Maputo at a backpackers for about five days next week! We took a taxi to the ferry where Jah had to push his way through to get tickets to ride over to Catembe. The ride itself was only about 20 minutes but the process was about an hour all together. When we arrived the other side we found a pick up truck to take us down kilometers of sandy road to our destination at Paulo's beachfront lodge. So far we have walked the beach and are awaiting a home cooked meal while relaxing on the covered deck area listening to the tide coming in...we can't wait for our new adventures tomorrow!
