vacation in Mozambique

                                       I don’t think I’ve mentioned yet that my
family homeschools, but the reason we where just on vacation is because we had school in
August. Mozambique was so cool, we saw:starfish, brittlestars, chestnut crabs, whales, dolphins,
yellow finned tuna, sea urchins, jelly fish and lots of other animals in the coral reefs.

Pirates Cannons and Urinals oh my!

 Well, my family has been in Malawi for a year now, so we decided to have a vacation. My dad was asked to do some youth training in Mozambique, so we decided that since we had paid for visas for Mozambique already that’s were we would go on vacation. We noticed in Mozambique that the roads where much better than in Malawi, even the dirt roads were better.  It was fun reading, and eating tamarind (a fruit that tastes a bit like a sweet and sour gummy bear) during the drive. After two day's travelling we arrived on Ilha de Mocambique (Mozambique Island.) The island was so cool! After a good nights sleep we explored a very old fort. It was shaped in a square, there were old rusty cannons
everywhere. In the corners there were  small rooms with slits to shoot guns. They had channels on the side so the gunmen could urinate. LOL! There was also an old slave market and a dungeon for pirates (basically just a covered square pit.) If the pirates survived for six months they were shot. And the pirates all lived happily ever after,

Driving to Mozambique

Hmm, I don't know were to start? Aha! Well, my family has been in Malawi for a year now, so
we decided to have a vacation. My dad was asked to do some youth training in Mozambique, so
we decided that since we had paid for visas for Mozambique already that’s were we would go on
vacation. We noticed in Mozambique that the roads where much better than in Malawi, even the
dirt roads were better.  It was fun reading and eating tamarind (a fruit that tastes a bit like a sweet
and sour gummy bear) during the drive. After two days traveling we arrived on Ilha de
Mocambique (Mozambique Island.) The island was so cool! After a good nights sleep we
explored a very old fort. It was shaped in a square, there were old rusty cannons everywhere. In
the corners there were  small rooms with slits to shoot guns. They had channels on the side so the
gunmen could take a whiz. Lol! There was also an old slave market and a dungeon for pirates
(basically just a square pit.) If the pirates survived for six months they were shot. After two
nights there we traveled on to the beach.
