Dave, Carol and myself left Maputo for Inhambane. It was less than 500 clicks but due to the roads being the most damaged of the trip it took close to 7 hours to get there. I think Dave and myself felt a weird guilt leaving Maputo for what was pretty much a vacation destination. We wanted to swim with the whale sharks so we suffered through the beach paradise for a day.
Dude was sleeping at 100km an hour...
The Hut Depot
Almost there
Fernando was one of my favorites. At 11 years old the kid was a briliant hustler and spoke amazing english that he picked up from tourists. The next day he was waiting at our car to give him a ride to school.
The view from my room
We didn't have a waterproof camera so I stole this photo from google. We swam with 5 different sharks the biggest being about 25 feet which is small according to the scientist that was with us. (yes we were with a creepy whale shark scientist, even had the shark tattoo) I don't usually get that impressed with touristy type shit that involves searching for whales but literally being 2 feet away from the biggest thing I have ever seen in the water was amazing.
