Sunset Falls On Lake Malawi

Following on from Monday’s post this week when I took you for a sail on a Catamaran, today we are on the return journey as the sun goes down.  One thing we had not anticipated was how cold it would be especially for the children who had been in the water. Nevertheless it was a wonderful experience and I hope you enjoy it also.






















Back on land again and Miss Java is berthed for the night.  I hope you enjoyed this post.

Thanks for coming along with me.

WILD BIRD WEDNESDAY - Birds at Yarmouth, Isle of Wight

Last time I was on the Isle of Wight, I visited Yarmouth and these are some of the birds I saw there. I didn't know until I looked at the photos at home that there were 2 Mediterranean Gulls among the Black headed gulls.  See if you can find them!

Sunset Sail On Lake Malawi (Part 1)

Last week I showed you us on a small boat watching Fish Eagles, today and on Wednesday, I will show you us having a sunset sail on a Catamaran.  It was so peaceful and beautiful and my 2 grandchildren had fun being pulled behind it at one point.  Jon was able to skipper the boat most of the way home.  Come along with us, you will not need any seasick pills as the gentle breeze propelles us quietly through the waters of Lake Malawi.
















We saw several Fish Eagles.












There is a short video.  CLICK HERE if it does not appear below.



I hope you enjoyed enjoyed first part of the sail because on Wednesday this week, I will be taking you on the return journey and you will see the beautiful sunset we experienced.

Thanks you for visiting and also to those who leave comments.
