Saturday: Mtemba Beach

The pictures are from an afternoon of rest at Mtemba Beach on Lake Malawi. We really enjoyed the beach and the boat ride. Just a note, I did not have any shorts and its warm at the beach. So, I took my trusty pocket knife and cut off the legs of a pair of blue jeans. The boatman paddled us for a mile in one direction across the corner of the lake and back. We were shocked at his ability to paddle for so long and so far. Fishing is the major source of income. The main catch in the nets was a sardine looking fish.
