... museum (rubbish) and the Maputo modern art exhibition (actually quite brilliant). Finally some people turned up at the backpackers and we went to the fishmarket for dinner. Each of us threw in some money and we feasted on giant prawns, shrimp, calamari and a huge 5lb grouber. That night I went to sleep painfully full but happy.

... upon arrival and if they said the price should be 700, we would pay him that .... and of course they did not. Anyways that was our first experience with Mozambique - someone trying to rip us off. :) The backpackers place also tried to give us a more expensive room than what we had booked.

As I later learned the story went something like this: a man that fit my description (white tourist chump?) was last seen with someone that showed up dead. Since I couldn't produce any documents we were going to have to go down to the police station.

... pack on the floor were our feet should of been and the other pack we were sitting on. We luckily met two Israeli sisters traveling to Chimoio on this bus also. It is always nice to meet fellow travelers. In Chimoio we spent the night in anticipation for another painfully early morning. With the Israeli sisters we caught a minibus to a crossroads (Inchope).
