Pictures

This is the road leading down to our house. Whats missing - yep you guessed it pavements and street lamps. There are very few pavements or street lamps, even on the major roads. This is one of the reasons why we are advised not to be out after dark


This is the view half way down our road, not bad is it, and yes I know there is a street lamp in the picture but be assured it doesn't work. It doesn't have a name, but then nor do most of the roads in Malawi, just the major ones.
It looks very rural but we are actually on the edge of Blantyre city. I live on one side of the city and the hospital is on the otherside. Blantyre is surrounded by the hills you can see in the distance.

And here is our house, this is the side view obviously.

This is the front of the house, to the right is the kitchen and main entrance and to the left is the sitting/dining room.

So this is our new abode, just a small garden to keep under control. This is only the front bit, the back bit is not quite so big but contains the vegetable patch which has maize growing in it at the moment, there are also 2 avacado trees, guava and mango trees.

So we are staying here for another couple of months but then probably moving again. Movers are us.
