Malawi - Cape Maclear

Then we packed up our tents, happy but a bit tired from dancing into the early hours night after night. So for a few days relaxation we headed to Cape Maclear, a beautiful area on Lake Malawi where we swam, read, hired kayaks to go paddling on the lake, and also hired some snorkels and saw plenty of brightly coloured fish. The only downside of the kayaking and snorkelling was the sun cream rubbing off far too easily which meant more burning than tanning but nothing too serious compared to some. The food at our lodge (Gecko Lounge) was simple, very tasty and much more European than African cuisine, which I hate to admit was a nice change. Leaving this idyllic place for the long journey back to Maz was tough.
